The front passenger seat head restraint 
automatically lowers after a few sec-
onds when the front passenger seat is 
not occupied.This improves the driver's 
outward view as well as the forward 
view from the rear passenger compart-
ment.

When the front passenger seat is occu-
pied again, the front passenger head 
restraint returns to the last set position 
within a few seconds.

If the front passenger seat was moved 
fore or aft while not being occupied, 
the front passenger seat head restraint 
returns to a position that corresponds 
best with the seat's axial position when 
the seat is occupied again.

open. Do not leave children unattended in 
the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked 
vehicle. Unsupervised use of vehicle equip-
ment may cause an accident and/or serious 
personal injury.
