GETTING STARTED Reactive Head Restraints - Front Seats The front driver and passenger seats are equipped with Reactive Head Restraints (RHR). In the event of a rear impact the RHRs will automatically extend forward minimizing the gap between the back of the occupants head and the RHR. The RHRs will automatically return to their normal position following a rear impact. If the RHRs do not return to their normal position see your authorized dealer immediately. To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head restraint. To lower the head restraint, press the release button, located at the base of the head restraint, and push downward on the head restraint. NOTE: The head restraints should only be removed by qualified technicians, for service purposes only. If either of the head restraints require removal, see your authorized dealer. WARNING! Do not place items over the top of the Reactive Head Restraint, such as coats, seat covers or portable DVD players. These items may interfere with the operation of the Reactive Head Restraint in the event of a collision and could result in serious injury or death. Rear Head Restraints The rear head restraints have two positions UP and DOWN. When the center seat is being occupied the head restraint should be in the raised position. When there are no occupants in the center seat the head restraint can be lowered for maximum visibility for the driver. To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head restraint. To lower the head restraint, press the release button, located at the base of the head restraint, and push downward on the head restraint. 30
