WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should
be adjusted so the middle of the
headrest is at the same height as the
center of gravity of an occupant's
head. Generally, the center of grav-
ity of most people's head is similar
with the height of the top of their
eyes. Also, adjust the headrest as
close to your head as possible. For
this reason, the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommended.
o Do not operate the vehicle with the
headrests removed as severe injury
to the occupants may occur in the
event of an accident. Headrests may
provide protection against neck inju-
ries when properly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the headrest position
of the driver's seat while the vehicle
is in motion.
