VEHICLE CONTROLSVEHICLE CONTROLS
Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious injury or de\
ath in a
crash.
Always sit upright, well back in the seat, with your feet on the floor.
WARNING
Adjusting the Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in all seating positions. Head
restraints are most effective for protection against whiplash and other \
rear-impact
crash injuries.
The center of the back of the occupant’s head
should rest against the center of the restraint. The
tops of the occupant’s ears should be level with the
center height of the restraint.
To raise the head restraint: Pull it upward.
To lower the head restraint: Push it down while
pressing the release button.
To remove the head restraint: Pull the restraint up
as far as it will go. Then push the release button,
and pull the restraint up and out.
To reinstall a head restraint:
Insert the legs back
in place, then adjust the head restraint to an
appropriate height while pressing the release
button. Pull up on the restraint to make sure it is
locked in position.
Position head in the
center of the head
restraint.Front seat
Second- or
third-row seat
Improperly positioning head restraints reduces their effectiveness and
increases the likelihood of serious injury in a crash.
Make sure head restraints are in place and positioned properly before driving.
Failure to reinstall, or correctly reinstall, the head restraints can re\
sult in
severe injury during a crash.
Always replace the head restraints before driving.
WARNING
WARNING
Active Head Restraints
The driver’s and front passenger’s seats
have active head restraints. If the vehicle
is struck severely from the rear, the
occupant properly secured with the seat
belt will be pushed against the seat-back
and the head restraint will automatically
move forward.
This reduces the distance between the restraint and the occupant’s head. It also
helps protect the occupants against the likelihood of whiplash and injur\
ies to the
neck and upper spine.
After a collision, the activated restraint should return to its normal position. If
the restraints do not return to their normal position, or in the event o\
f a severe
collision, have the vehicle inspected by a Honda dealer.
For a head restraint system to work 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.
Floor Mats Position the front seat floor mats properly, and anchor
them. If they are not properly positioned, the floor
mats can interfere with the front seat functions.
Do not put additional floor mats on top of the
anchored mats.
