presses against the seatback dur-
ing a rear-end collision, the head
restraint moves slightly forward
and upward to help reduce the risk
of whiplash on the seat occupant.

If the seat is already close to the rearmost position, the auto away function may not
operate when the driver exits the vehicle.
■Active head restraints
Even small forces applied to the seatback may cause the head restraint to move.

■Customization
The distance that the driver’s seat moves backward during the auto away function
can be changed. (Customizable features P. 7 8 1 )
CAUTION
■Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not recline the
seat more than necessary. 
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint
forces directly to the abdomen, or yo ur neck may contact the shoulder belt,
increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident. 
Adjustments should not be made while driv ing as the seat may unexpectedly move
and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
