FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD
RESTRAINTS
WARNING
●
Always adjust the head restraints properly
as specified in this section. Failure to do so
can reduce the effectiveness of the Active
Head Restraint.
●
Active Head Restraints are designed to
supplement other safety systems. Always
wear seat belts. No system can prevent all
injuries in any accident.
●
Do not attach anything to the head restraint
stalks. Doing so could impair Active Head
Restraint function.
The Active Head Restraint moves forward utiliz-
ing the force that the seatback receives from
the occupant in a rear-end collision. The move-
ment 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 positions.
Properly adjust the Active Head Restraints as
described earlier in this section.
