Rear Head Restraint Adjustment

The rear seats are equipped with adjustable head restraints,
the outboard head restraints have two comfort positions,
while the central head restraint has to be used in the raised
position. When there are no occupants in the center seat,
the head restraint can be lowered for maximum visibility
for the driver. When the center seat is being occupied, the
head restraint has to be in the raised position.
To raise the outboard head restraints, pull upward on the
head restraint. To lower the head restraints, push the
adjustment button located at the base of the head restraint,
and push downward on the head restraint.

Front Head Restraint Removal

To remove the head restraint, raise it as far as it can go then
push the adjustment button, and the release button at the
base of each post while pulling the head restraint up. To
reinstall the head restraint, put the head restraint posts into
the holes and push downward. Then adjust it to the
appropriate height.
NOTE: Do not reposition the head restraint 180 degrees to
the incorrect position in an attempt to gain additional
clearance to the back of the head.
WARNING!
• A loose head restraint thrown forward in a collision
or hard stop could cause serious injury or death to
occupants of the vehicle. Always securely stow re-
moved head restraints in a location outside the
occupant compartment.
• ALL the head restraints MUST be reinstalled in the
vehicle to properly protect the occupants. Follow the
re-installation instructions above prior to operating
the vehicle or occupying a seat.
