Folding Rear Seats - Suzuki VITARA series Owner's Manual

Head restraints
Head restraints are designed to help
reduce the risk of neck injuries in the case
of an accident.
WARNING
• Never drive the vehicle with the
head restraints removed.
• Do not attempt to adjust the head
restraint while driving.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to fold forward the
seatback to provide enough overhead
clearance to remove the head restraint.
Adjust the head restraint to the position
which places the center of the head
restraint closest to the top of your ears. If
this is not possible for very tall passengers,
adjust the head restraint as high as possi-
ble.

ment, etc.), push in the lock lever and pull
the head restraint all the way out.
When installing a child restraint system,
remove the head restraint.
