To tilt the passenger's seat-back out of the way, push forward on the release lever at the base of the seatback. See page 14 for important safety information and a warning about how to properly position the head restraints. The front head restraints help protect you and your passenger from whiplash and other injuries. They are most effective when you adjust them so the back of the occupant's head rests against the center of the restraint. A taller person should adjust the restraint as high as CONTINUED possible.
