4.AdjusttheHeadRestraints
Reclining the seat-back too far
can result in serious injury or
death in a crash.
Improperly positioning head
restraints reduces their
effectiveness, and you can be
seriously injured in a crash.
Adjust the seat-back to an
upright position, and sit well
back in the seat.
Make sure head restraints are
in place and positioned properly
before driving.
