Active head restraint
When the occupant’s back
presses against the seatback
during a rear-end collision, the
head restraint moves slightly for-
ward to help reduce the risk of
whiplash on the seat occupant.
Active head restraint
Even small forces applied to the seatback may cause the head restraint to
move. This does not indicate a problem.
CAUTION
Seat adjustment
Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion
to reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt.
If the seat is too reclined, during an accident the lap belt may slide past the
hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen or your neck may
contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury.
Manual seat: After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in
position.
