Adjusting the head restraints of the rear seats mechanically
WARNING Risk of injury due to head restraints not being fitted or being adjusted incorrectly

If head restraints have not been installed or have not been adjusted correctly, there is an increased risk of injury in the head and neck area, e.g. in the event of an accident or when braking.

Always drive with the head restraints fitted.
Before driving off, make sure for every vehicle occupant that the centre of the head restraint supports the back of the head at about eye level.

Do not interchange the head restraints of the front and rear seats. Otherwise, you will not be able to adjust the height and angle of the head restraints correctly.

Adjust the head restraint fore-and-aft position so that it is as close as possible to the back of your head.

To raise:
pull the head restraint up.
To lower:
press release knob in the direction of the arrow and push the head restraint down.
If the centre seat on the second row of seats is not occupied:
press the head restraint down all the way.
Vehicles with a third row of seats

The head restraints on the third row of seats have a usage position and a non-usage position. The usage position is the extended, top position in which the head restraint engages; the non-usage position is the bottom, retracted position of the head restraint. If the seats on the third row of seats are being used, the head restraint must be in the top, engaged usage position.

If the third row of seats is occupied:
move the head restraints to the very top and have them engage there.
If the third row of seats is not occupied:
move the head restraints to the very bottom.
