Honda CR-V: Adjust the Head Restraints
Honda CR-V (2006–2011) Owner's Manual / Driver and Passenger Safety / Protecting Adults and Teens / Adjust the Head Restraints
Adjust the driver’s head restraint so the center of the back of your head rests against the center of the restraint.
Have passengers adjust their head restraints properly as well. Taller persons should adjust their restraint as high as possible.
Improperly positioning head restraints reduces their effectiveness and you can be seriously injured in a crash.
Make sure head restraints are in place and positioned properly before driving.
Properly adjusted head restraints will help protect occupants from whiplash and other crash injuries.
See page for how to adjust the head restraints and how the driver’s and front passenger’s active head restraints work.
