Rear Seat Adjustment

Head Restraint

The rear seat is equipped with head restraints at all seating positions for occupant safety and comfort.

The head restraint not only provides comfort for passengers, but also helps protect the head and neck in the event of a collision.

For maximum effectiveness in an accident, adjust the head restraint so that its center is level with the center of gravity of the occupant's head. Generally, the center of gravity of most people's head is at the height of the top of their eyes.

Also, adjust the head restraint as close to the head as possible. For this reason, using a cushion that holds the body away from the seatback is not recommended.

Up and Down Height Adjustment

To raise the head restraint, pull it up to the desired position (1). To lower the head restraint, press and hold the release button (2) on the head restraint post and lower the head restraint to the desired position (3).

Removal and Installation

To remove the head restraint, raise it as far as possible, then press the release button (1) while pulling the head restraint upward (2).

To reinstall the headrest, insert the headrest posts (3) into the holes while pressing the release button (1). Then adjust it to the desired height and make sure it locks into position.
