&_ WARNING
-
- All seats are equipped with head re-
straints. Driving without head restraints
or with head restraints that are not prop-
erly adjusted increases the risk of serious
or fatal neck injury dramatically.
- Read and heed all WARNINGS
o page 139, Proper adjustment of head
restraints.
- Vehicles with a pass through in the cen-
ter conso le have seating for four. The
long center console between the two
rear seats is
not a seating position.
Therefore, a safety belt is not provided.

- To prevent the head restraints from run-
ning into the headliner, they retract au-
tomatically when moving the seat for-
ward or upward.
- Correctly adjusted head restraints and
safety belts are an extremely effective
combination of safety features.
