The front passenger seat head restraint
automatically lowers after a few sec-
onds when the front passenger seat is
not occupied.This improves the driver's
outward view as well as the forward
view from the rear passenger compart-
ment.
When the front passenger seat is occu-
pied again, the front passenger head
restraint returns to the last set position
within a few seconds.

fore or aft while not being occupied,
the front passenger seat head restraint
returns to a position that corresponds
best with the seat's axial position when
the seat is occupied again.
