Attaching and removing the additional cushion of the head restraint in the rear compartment (individual seats)
WARNING Risk of injury due to incorrectly adjusted head restraints
If head restraints 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 sudden braking.
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.
Adjust the head restraint fore-and-aft position so that it is as close as possible to the back of your head.
