NECK-PRO head restraints
Important safety notes
The NECK-PRO head restraints increase
protection to the driver's and the front
passenger's head and neck. The NECK-PRO
head restraints on the driver's and front-
passenger seats are moved forwards and
upwards in the event of a rear-end collision of
a certain severity. This provides better head
support.
G
WARNING
Do not secure any objects (e.g. coat hangers)
on the NECK-PRO head restraints. Otherwise,
the NECK-PRO head restraints may not
function properly, or in the event of a rear-end
collision may not be able offer the level of
protection they are designed to provide.
G
WARNING
Head restraint covers prevent the NECK-PRO
head restraints from triggering correctly.
Consequently, the NECK-PRO head restraints
cannot provide the intended level of
protection. Do not use head restraint covers.
