in the event of a collision.
WARNING
•For maximum effectiveness incase of an accident, the headrestshould be adjusted so the middleof the headrest is at the sameheight as the center of gravity ofan occupant's head.Generally, the center of gravity ofmost people's head is similar withthe height of the top of their eyes.Also, adjust the headrest as closeto your head as possible. For thisreason, the use of a cushion thatholds the body away from theseatback is not recommended.
•Do not operate the vehicle withthe headrests removed as severeinjury to the occupants may occurin the event of an accident. Headr‐ests may provide protectionagainst neck injuries when proper‐ly adjusted.
•Do not adjust the headrest posi‐tion of the driver's seat while thevehicle is in motion.
