Headrest

The driver's and front passenger's

seats are equipped with a headrest

for the occupant's safety and com-

fort.

The headrest not only provides com-

fort for the driver and front passen-

ger, but also helps protect the head

and neck in the event of a collision.

For maximum effectiveness in case

of an accident, the headrest should

be adjusted so the middle of the

headrest is at the same height of the

center of gravity of an occupant's

head. Generally, the center of gravity

of most people's head is similar with

the height of the top of their eyes.

Also, adjust the headrest as close to

your head as possible.

For this reason, the use of a cushion

that holds the body away from the

seatback is not recommended.

Forward and rearward adjustment

The headrest may be adjusted for-

ward to 4 different positions by

pulling the headrest forward to the

desired detent. To adjust the head-

rest to it’s furthest rearward position,

pull it fully forward to the farthest

position and release it. Adjust the

headrest so that it properly supports

the head and neck.
