Head Restraint Adjustment
Pull the head restraint up to raise it. To lower it, push it
down while pressing the release button on the top of
the seatback. Each head restraint should be adjusted
so that the center of the head restraint is closest to the
top of the occupant’s ears. This adjustment should be
made for any seating position, front or rear, that has a
new occupant.
You can adjust the angle of the front head restraints by tilting them forward. You will hear a
click when the restraint is locked. Pulling the head restraint as far forward as it will go will
allow it to return to the fully upright position.
