Headrests
For your safety, the front seats are equipped with active headrests that
are not adjustable forward or backward, only up and down. An active
headrest is designed to move forward in the event of a collision to close
the gap between your head and the headrest (to prevent whiplash).
Driver’s Seat Lumbar Support Adjustment
(if equipped)
To increase the lumbar support, move the lever
upward. Move the lever downward to decrease
lumbar support.
5‐door hatchback
Push the button to fold
down the seatback.
NOTE: For tall drivers and front passengers who
adjust the front seats all the way back, the headrests
on the rear seats need to be removed when folding the
rear seatbacks down. If not removed, the rear headrest
will press into the front seatback. In order to remove the
headrest from the rear seat, the seatback needs to be
tilted slightly forward.
NOTE: Left rear seat release is shown .
