Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
Head restraint adjustment
In this manual: Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
~1min read
Both the rear window side seats and the rear center seat are equipped with head restraints.

• Never drive the vehicle with the head restraints removed because they are designed to reduce the risk of serious neck injury in the event that the vehicle is struck from the rear. Therefore, when you remove the head restraints, you must reinstall all head restraints to protect vehicle occupants.
• All occupants, including the driver, should not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the head restraints are placed in their proper positions in order to minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a crash.
