Head Restraints - Alfa Romeo Giulietta Owner's Handbook Manual

HEAD RESTRAINTS

FRONT HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are adjustable in height and they lock automati-
cally in the required position:
❍ upward adjustment: lift the head restraint until it locks
❍ downward adjustment, press the A button fig. 26 and lower
the head restraint.
Head restraints must be adjusted so that the head,
rather than the neck, rests on them. Only in this
case they can protect your head correctly.

To remove the head restraints:
❍ raise the head restraint to its maximum height;
❍ press A and B buttons fig. 26 and then remove the head re-
straints by sliding them upwards.
"Anti-Whiplash" device
The head restraints are equipped with an "Anti-Whiplash" device,
which reduces the distance between head and head restraint in the
event of a rear impact, thus mitigating the "whiplash" effect.
The head restraint may move when the backrest is pressed by
the occupant's torso or hand: this is an effect of the system and
not a fault.
