BEFORE DRIVING

57L20-03E

Rear Seats

Head Restraints

Head restraints are designed to help

reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case

of an accident.

NOTE:

It may be necessary to fold forward the

seatback to provide enough overhead

clearance to remove the head restraint.

Adjust the head restraint to the position

which places the center of the head

restraint closest to the top of your ears. If

this is not possible for very tall passengers,

adjust the head restraint as high as possi-

ble.

Rear

57L21039

Your vehicle is equipped with three head

restraints on the rear seat.

WARNING

Improperly using the seat heater can

be hazardous. An occupant can suf-

fer burns even if the heating tempera-

ture is fairly low, if the occupant is

wearing thin pants, a thin skirt or

shorts and leaves the heater on for

long periods.

Avoid using the seat heater for these

occupants:

• People who have reduced feeling in

their legs, including the elderly or

those with certain disabilities.

• Small children, or anyone with sen-

sitive skin.

• People who are asleep or under the

influence of alcohol or other drugs

which make them tired.

CAUTION

To avoid damaging the heater ele-

ment:

• Do not subject the front seats to

heavy impacts, such as children

jumping on them.

• Do not cover the seat with any

insulating materials such as blan-

kets or cushions.

WARNING

All occupants, including the driver,

should not operate a vehicle or sit in

a vehicle’s seat until the head

restraints are placed in their proper

positions in order to minimize the

risk of severe injury in the event of a

crash.

WARNING

All head restraints must be rein-

stalled to properly protect vehicle

occupants.

WARNING

• Never drive the vehicle with the

head restraints removed.

• Do not attempt to adjust the head

restraint while driving.
