Warning

With head restraints that are not
installed and adjusted properly, there is a
greater chance that occupants will suffer
a neck/spinal injury in a crash. Do not
drive until the head restraints for all
occupants are installed and adjusted
properly.

To reinstall the head restraint:

1. Insert the head restraint posts into the

holes in the top of the seatback. The
notches on the posts must face the
driver side of the vehicle.

release button to further lower the head

Replacing LATCH System Parts
After a Crash

{

Warning

A crash can damage the LATCH system in
the vehicle. A damaged LATCH system
may not properly secure the child
restraint, resulting in serious injury or
even death in a crash. To help make sure
the LATCH system is working properly
after a crash, see your dealer to have the
system inspected and any necessary
replacements made as soon as possible.

If the vehicle has the LATCH system and it
was being used during a crash, new LATCH
system parts may be needed.
