Whenever possible it should be installed and properly adjusted when the seat is occupied.

To adjust the head restraint, do the following:

• Reinstall: Align the steel stems into the guide sleeves and push the head restraint down until it locks.

Front Seat Non-adjustable Head Restraints (If Equipped)

The non-adjustable head restraints consist of a trimmed foam covering over the upper structure of the seat back.

Properly adjust the seat back to an upright driving/riding position, so that the head restraint is positioned as close as possible to the back of your head.

Rear Seat Non-adjustable Outboard Head Restraints

The second row outboard non-adjustable head restraints can be rotated forward to improve rear vision when there are no rear occupants.

The non-adjustable head restraints consist of:

A. a trimmed energy absorbing foam and structure
B. a rotation button.

Press the rotation button to rotate the head restraint forward in order to improve rear vision when there are no rear seat occupants.

Properly adjust the head restraint to an upright driving or riding position by lifting up on the head restraint until it locks into its original position.

Tilting Head Restraints (If Equipped)

The front head restraints may have a tilting feature for extra comfort.

To tilt the head restraint, do the following:

1. Adjust the seat back to an upright driving or riding position.
2. Tilt the head restraint forward by gently pulling the top of the head restraint.

Once it is in its forward-most position, tilt it forward once more to release it to the upright position.
