Head Restraints - Dodge 2015 Charger Operating Instructions Manual

Head Restraints

Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk
of injury by restricting head movement 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.
WARNING!
The head restraints for all occupants must be
properly adjusted prior to operating the ve-
hicle or occupying a seat. Head restraints
should never be adjusted while the vehicle is
in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head
restraints improperly adjusted or removed
could cause serious injury or death in the
event of a collision.
Reactive Head Restraints — Front Seats
The front driver and passenger seats are
equipped with Reactive Head Restraints (RHR).
In the event of a rear impact the RHRs will
automatically extend forward minimizing the
gap between the back of the occupants head
and the RHR.
The RHRs will automatically return to their
normal position following a rear impact. If the
RHRs do not return to their normal position see
your authorized dealer immediately.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the
head restraint. To lower the head restraint,
press the adjustment button, located at the
base of the head restraint, and push downward
on the head restraint.
NOTE:
To remove the head restraint, raise it as far
as it can go then push the release button
and the adjustment button at the base of
each post while pulling the head restraint
up. To reinstall the head restraint, put the
head restraint posts into the holes and push
downward. Then adjust the head restraint to
the appropriate height.
