3. Insert a short, flat object (such as a small
flat-head screwdriver) into the opening on
the inside base of the left post and pull
the head support upward.
To re-install the head support:
1. With the front of the head support facing
forward, insert both posts into the
corresponding holes on the seat back.
2. Press down on the head support until it
clicks into place.
3. Pull up on the head support to ensure that
it is secure.
Warning: Ensure that the head
support is correctly installed before
seating an occupant. Failure to do so
increases the risk of injury or death if
a collision occurs.
Seat Heaters
The front and rear seats contain heating pads
that operate at three levels from 3 (highest) to
1 (lowest). To operate the seat heaters, see
Climate Controls on page 124.
Warning:
To avoid burns resulting from
prolonged use, individuals who have
peripheral neuropathy, or whose capacity
to feel pain is limited because of diabetes,
age, neurological injury, or some other
condition, should exercise caution when
using the climate control system and seat
heaters.
Seat Covers
Warning:
Do not use seat covers in Model
Y. Doing so could restrict deployment of
the seat-mounted side air bags if a
collision occurs. Also, if the vehicle is
equipped with an occupant detection
system that is used to determine the
status of the passenger front airbag, seat
covers may interfere with this system.
