Safety features of your vehicle Seat
Headrest for rear seat
The rear seat is equipped with
headrests in all the seating positions
for the occupant's safety and com
-
fort.
The headrest not only provides
comfort
for passengers, but also
helps protect the head and neck in
the event of a collision.
For maximum effectiveness in case
of a
n ac
cident, the headrest should
be adjusted so the middle of the
headrest is at the same height of
the center of gravity of an occu
-
pant's head. Generally, the center of
gravity of most people's heads is
similar with the height as the top of
their eyes.
Also, adjust the headrest as close to
your head
a
s possible. For this rea
-
son, the use of a cushion that holds
the body away from the seatback is
not recommended.
