uu Adjusting the Seats u Adjusting the Seat Positions
The driver’s and front passenger’s seats have active head restraints. In a rear impact,
an occupant properly secured by a seat be lt will be pushed against the seat-back and
the head restraint will move forward. This reduces the distance between the
restraint and the occupant’s head, which helps reduce the likelihood of whiplash
and injuries to the neck and upper spine.
■Active Head Restraints1Active Head Restraints
In order for the active he ad restraints to operate
properly:
•Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or
from the restraint legs.
•Do not place any object between an occupant and
the seat-back.
•Install each restraint in its proper location.
After a collision, the activated restraint should return
to its normal position. If the restraint does not return
to its normal position, or in the event of a severe
collision, have the vehicl e inspected by a dealer.
