Safety features of your Kia Seats
Headrest for front seat
The driver's and front passenger's seats
are equipped with a headrest for safety
and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort
for the driver and front passenger, but
also helps protect the head and neck in
the event of a rear collision.
For maximum effectiveness in case of
an accident, the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the headrest is
as high as the center of gravity of an
occupant's head. Generally, the center of
gravity of most people's head is the top
of their eyes.
Adjust the headrest as close to your
head as possible. The use of a cushion
that holds the body away from the seat
-
back is not recommended.
