To raise or lower it, pull it forwards, then slide it.

To tilt it, tilt its lower part forwards or backwards.

To remove it, move it to almost its highest position, lift the tab using a coin, and pull it forwards and upwards.

To refit it, insert the headrest posts into the holes, keeping them aligned with the centre of the backrest.

Never drive with the headrests removed from the vehicle; it is dangerous, and they can become projectiles in case of heavy braking. They must be in place and correctly adjusted.

The adjustment is correct when the top of the headrest is aligned with the top of the occupant's head.
