the upper part of your head.

tion as desired  page 84, fig. 71 - left.

the head restraint out.
– To re-insert the head restraint, push it down into the seat backrest far enough until

The position of the front and rear outer head restraints is adjustable in height. The

The head restraints must be adjusted to match the size of the seat occupant. Correctly
adjusted head restraints together with the seat belts offer effective protection for the
occupants  page 162, “Correct seated position”.

protection for the occupants in the event of an accident.
 Do not drive under any circumstance with removed head restraints - risk of
injury.
