GETTING STARTED

HEAD RESTRAINTS

Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by restricting head move-
ment in the event of a rear-impact. Head restraints should be adjusted so that the
top of the head restraint is located above the top of your ear.
The head restraints for all occupants must be properly adjusted prior to operating
the vehicle or occupying a seat. Head restraints should never be adjusted while
the vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head restraints improperly ad-
justed or removed could cause serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
Rear Head Restraints
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head restraint. To lower the head
restraint, push the adjustment button, located at the base of the head restraint, and
push downward on the head restraint. Refer to "Occupant Restraints" in "Things To
Know Before Starting Your Vehicle" in your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further
information on tether routing.
