Adjustable head restraints (if equipped)
Your vehicle's seats may be equipped with head restraints which are

head motion in the event of a rear collision. To properly adjust your head
restraints, lift the head restraint so that it is located directly behind your
head or as close to that position as possible. Refer to the following to
raise and lower the head restraints.
The head restraints can be moved

Adjusting the front manual seat
Never adjust the driver's seat or seatback when the vehicle is
