with the vehicle stationary and engine off.
Head restraints must be adjusted so that the
head, rather than the neck, rests on them. Only in
this case they can protect your head correctly. To
make the best use of the head restraint protection,
adjust the seat back to keep a straight back, with
the head as close as possible to its restraint.

ward using lever B);

vided) to move the seats back until you hear a click.

at both sides to prevent it moving forward in
the event of sharp braking that may cause
injuries to passengers.
