The f ront head restraints help
protect you and your passenger f rom

most effective when you adjust them
so the back of the occupant’s head
rests against the center of the
restraint. A taller person should
adjust the restraint as high as
possible.

the lever on the right side of the
seat-back. Move the lever forward or

support through its f ull range.
The seat adjustment switches are on
the outside edge of the seat bottom.
