GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 75

Rear Head Restraints

Your vehicle is equipped with two outboard head re-
straints and one center head restraint for its rear passen-
gers. The rear head restraints can be raised or lowered.
When the center seat is being occupied, the head restraint
should be 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.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head
restraint. To lower the head restraint, push the adjust-
ment button, located at the base of the head restraint, and
push downward on the head restraint.
To remove the head restraint, raise it as far as it can go
then push the release button and adjustment button at
the base of each post while pulling the head restraint up.
