On the headrest there are three levers (figure 48) that allows you to adjust the headrest into the desired position.
These levers work in the following way:
Turn the levers separately, never simultaneously;

Move the headrest to the desired position;

Turn the lever back until they are tight and possibly do the same with the other levers (if an adjustment is

move the levers without loosening of fastening them;
You can also adjust the headrest by pulling the sides of the headrest in or outwards with your hands, see
