Front head restraints

~1min read

Adjusting upwards: raise the head restraint until you feel it click into the locked position.

Adjusting downwards: press button A fig. 11 and lower the head restraint.

"Anti-Whiplash" device

The head restraints are fitted with the "Anti-Whiplash" device, which reduces the distance between the head and the head restraint in the event of a rear impact, limiting injuries caused by so-called "whiplash".

If pressure is applied to the backrest with the torso or hand, the head restraint may move: this behaviour is normal for the system and should not be considered a malfunction.
