After installing a head restraint, try
lifting it to make sure that it does not
pull out:
Driving with an unsecured head
restraint is dangerous as the
eectiveness of the head restraint will
be compromised which could cause it
to unexpectedly detach from the seat.
CAUTION
¾When installing a head restraint,
make sure that it is installed correctly
with the front of the head restraint
facing forward. If the head restraint is
installed incorrectly, it could detach
from the seat during a collision and
result in injury.
¾The head restraints on each of the
front and rear seats are specialized to
each seat. Do not switch around the
head restraint positions. If a head
restraint is not installed to its correct
seat position, the
eectiveness
of the
head restraint during a collision will
be compromised which could cause
injury.
