Safety features of your vehicle

Armrest (if equipped)

To use the armrest, pull it forward

from the seatback.

The rear seat(s) is equipped with

headrests in all the seating positions

for the occupant's safety and comfort.

The headrest not only provides com-

fort for passengers, but also helps

protect the head and neck in the

event of a collision.

• For maximum effectiveness in

case of an accident, the head-

rest should be adjusted so the

middle of the headrest is at the

same height of the center of

gravity of an occupant's head.

Generally, the center of gravity

of most people's head is simi-

lar with the height of the top of

their eyes. Also adjust the

headrest as close to your head

as possible. For this reason,

the use of a cushion that holds

the body away from the seat-

back is not recommended.

• Do not operate the vehicle

with the headrests removed.

Severe injury to an occupant

may occur in the event of an

accident. Headrests may pro-

vide protection against severe

neck injuries when properly
