Head
restraints*

The
front
head restraints are adjustable for rake and height and should be set to suit the

size
of the person in the seat. Correctly ad­
justed head restraints together
with
the
seat
belts offer effective protection.

Adjusting
height*

• Grip sides of head restraint
with
both hands and pull up or push down.
• The best protection is obtained when the upper edge of restraint is roughly at eye
level.

Note

In vehicles
with
a high partition the head re­
straints are not adjustable.
Removing
and
installing

To
remove head restraints in
front
seat
backrests,
pull restraints up to the stop,
press
both buttons (arrows) and atthe same
time take restraints out.

To
install again, push the restraint rods
into

the guides
until
they are heard to engage.
Note

On
some models, head restraints are
fitted

which are retained by spring clips.

To
remove the spring clips from the seat backrest guide rings, pull or push the clip out
to one side
with
a small screwdriver.
When reinstalling, insert the head restraint
first,
and then push the spring clips in so
that

the straight leg is at the rear.
