WARNING
For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the head- rest should be adjusted so the
middle of the headrest is at thesame height of the centre of
gravity of an occupant's head.
Generally, the centre of gravityof most people's head is simi-lar with the height of the top of
their eyes. Also, adjust the
headrest as close to your head
as possible. For this reason,the use of a cushion that holds
the body away from the seat-
back is not recommended.
Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed
as severe injury to the occu-
pants may occur in the event
of an accident. Headrests may
provide protection against
neck injuries when properlyadjusted.
Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver's seat
whilst the vehicle is in motion.
