Dodge Challenger 2015 - Head Restraints

HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by restricting head movement in
the event of a rear impact. Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top of the head
restraint is located above the top of your ear.
WARNING!
The head restraints for all occupants must be properly installed and adjusted prior to
operating the vehicle or occupying a seat. Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head restraints improperly
adjusted or removed could cause serious injury or death in the event of a collision.
Active Head Restraints — Front Seats
The front driver and passenger seats are equipped with Active Head Restraints (AHR). In
the event of a rear impact the AHRs will automatically extend forward minimizing the gap
between the back of the occupants head and the AHR.
The AHRs will automatically return to their normal position following a rear impact. If the
AHRs do not return to their normal position see your authorized dealer immediately.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head restraint. To lower the head restraint,
push the adjustment button located at the base of the head restraint and push downward
on the head restraint.
To remove the head restraint, remove the seat belt from the seat belt loop. Raise the head
restraint as far as it can go then push the adjustment button and the release button at the
base of each post while pulling the head restraint up. To reinstall the head restraint, put
the head restraint posts into the holes while pushing the adjustment button and release
button. Then adjust it to the appropriate height.
WARNING!
• A loose head restraint thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could cause serious
injury or death to occupants of the vehicle. Always securely stow removed head
restraints in a location outside the occupant compartment.
• 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.
• Do not place items over the top of the Active Head Restraint, such as coats, seat
covers or portable DVD players. These items may interfere with the operation of the
Reactive Head Restraint in the event of a collision and could result in serious injury
or death.
