ALL the head restraints MUST be reinstalled in
the vehicle to properly protect the occupants.
Follow the re-installation instructions above prior
to operating the vehicle or occupying a seat.

WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the head restraints
removed or improperly adjusted could cause
serious injury or death in the event of a
collision. The head restraints should be
checked prior to operating the vehicle and
never adjusted while the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering column while
driving. Adjusting the steering column while
driving or driving with the steering column
unlocked, could cause the driver to lose
control of the vehicle. Failure to follow this
