HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by restricting head movement in
the event of a rear impact. Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top of the head
restraint is located above the top of your ear .
WARNING!
The head restraints for all occupants must be properly installed and adjusted prior to
operating the vehicle or occupying a seat. Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head restraints improperly
adjusted or removed could cause serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
Active Head Restraints — Front Seats
The front driver and passenger seats are equipped with Active Head Restraints (AHR). In
the event of a rear impact the AHRs will automatically extend forward minimizing the gap
between the back of the occupants head and the AHR.
The AHRs will automatically return to their normal position following a rear impact. If the
AHRs do not return to their normal position see your authorized dealer immediately.
