For 1990-2009 cars only

The vehicle's front seats have adjustable head restraints in the outboard seating positions.

The vehicle's rear seats have head restraints in the outboard seating positions, but they are not adjustable.

Caution: With head restraints that are not installed and adjusted properly, there is a greater chance that occupants will suffer a neck/spinal injury in a crash. Do not drive until the head restraints for all occupants are installed and adjusted properly.

Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant's head. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.


Object Number: 1525254  Size: A3

Pull the head restraint up to raise it. To lower the head restraint, press the button, located on the top of the seatback, and push the restraint down.

Push down on the head restraint after the button is released to make sure that it is locked in place.

The vehicle's head restraints are not designed to be removed.

Active Head Restraint System

On vehicles with an active head restraint system in the front outboard seating positions, the head restraints automatically tilt forward to reduce the risk of neck injury if the vehicle is hit from behind.
