Head Restraints  
The vehicle’s front seats have  
adjustable head restraints in all  
outboard seating positions.  
{ CAUTION  
With head restraints that are not  
installed and adjusted properly,  
there is a greater chance that  
occupants will suffer a neck/spinal  
injury in a crash. Do not drive  
until the head restraints for all  
occupants are installed and  
adjusted properly.  
Adjust the head restraint so that the  
top of the restraint is at the same  
height as the top of the occupant’s  
head. This position reduces the  
chance of a neck injury in a crash.  
Pull the head restraint up to raise it.  
To lower the head restraint, press  
the release button, located on  
the head restraint post on the top of  
the seatback, while you push the  
head restraint down.  
Push down on the head restraint  
after the button is released to make  
sure that it is locked in place.
