SSS0508
Front-seat Active Head Restraint
The Active Head Restraint moves forward
utilizing the force that the seatback receives
from the occupant in a rear-end collision. The
movement of the head restraint helps support
the occupant’s head by reducing its backward
movement and helping absorb some of the
forces that may lead to whiplash-type injuries.
Active Head Restraints are effective for colli-
sions at low to medium speeds in which it is said
that whiplash injury occurs most.
Active Head Restraints operate only in certain
rear-end collisions. After the collision, the head
restraints return to their original position.
Adjust the Active Head Restraints properly as
described earlier in this section.
ADJUSTABLE HEADREST (Hardtop
models)
WARNING
The adjustable headrests supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjust the headrests properly, as
specified in this section. Check the
adjustment after someone else uses
the seat. Do not attach anything to the
adjustable headrest stalks or remove
the adjustable headrests. Do not use
the seat if the adjustable headrests
have been removed. If the adjustable
headrest was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the headrest before an
occupant uses the seating position.
Failure to follow these instructions
can reduce the effectiveness of the
adjustable headrests. This may in-
crease the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.
