Electronic active head restraint 
The electronic active head restraint
is designed to automatically adjust
its position forwards and upwards,
when a rear impact is detected. This
helps to prevent the driver’s and front
passenger’s heads from moving
backwards and thus helps minimize
neck injuries.
The electronic active head
restraint is a safety device to
reduce injury in a rear impact. Do
not intentionally hit or pull the
head restraint.
Climate control system seat (if equipped)
This system cools or warms the front
seats by blowing air through small
vent holes both on the seat cushions
and on seatbacks.
While the engine is running, press
the rear portion of the button to cool
or warm the driver’s or the front pas-
senger’s seats.
When the operation of the climate
system seat is unnecessary, press
OFF the button.
 Each time you press the button,
the air flow changes as follows:
 When pressing the button for 1.5 seconds or over with the climate
control system ON, the climate
control system seat will be turned
OFF.
 The default setting of the climate control system seat resets is OFF,
when the Engine Start/Stop Button
is turned ON.
 With the climate control system seat ON, the system automatically
operates or stops in accordance
with a seat temperature.

 The climate control system seatis a supplementary cooling and
warming system. Operate the
climate control system seat after
turning ON the climate control
system. Operate the climate
control seat for a prolonged
period of time without turning
ON the climate control system
may reduce performance of the
climate control system seat.
 When cleaning the seats, do not use an organic solvent such as
thinner, benzene, alcohol and
gasoline. Such solvent may
damage the seat surface.
 Do not spill liquid such as water or beverages over the front seat
cushions and seatbacks.
Otherwise, the air vent holes
may be blocked and prevent the
system from working properly.
 Do not leave materials, such as plastic bags or newspapers,
under the seats. The air vent
hole may not properly operate,
because the air intake is
blocked.
 When the air vent hole does not operate, restart the vehicle. If a
problem persists, we recom-
mend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
EQUUS dealer.
Seatback pocket
The seatback pockets are located on
the back of the driver's and the front
passenger’s seats.
