Rear Head Restraints

The rear outboard head restraints have three positions Up, Mid and Down. The center
head restraint has only two positions, Up and Down. When the center seat is being
occupied the head restraint should be in the raised position. When there is no
occupant 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 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.
ALL the head restraints MUST be reinstalled in the vehicle to properly protect the
occupants. Follow the re-installation instructions above prior to operating the
vehicle or occupying a seat.
