Active headrest

The active headrest is designed to move
forward and upward during a rear impact.
This helps to prevent the driver's and
front passenger’s head from moving
backward and thus helps prevent neck
injuries.

Seatback pocket (if equipped)

The seatback pocket is provided on the
back of the front passenger’s seatback.

pocket

Do not put heavy or sharp objects
in the seatback pocket. In an acci-
dent they could come loose from
the pocket and injure vehicle occu-
pants.

A gap between the seat and the

appear when seating on the seat or
when you push or pull the seat. Be
careful not to get your finger, etc.
caught in the gap.

Passengers should use extreme
caution when using the climate

to feel if the seat is becoming too
warm and to turn the seat warmer
off. In particular, the driver must

lowing types of passengers:

abled persons, or hospital outpa-
tients
