Nissan ARIYA 2023 Owners Manual
5.2. Head restraints
Head restraints supplement the other vehicle safety systems. They may provide additional protection against injury in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable head restraints must be adjusted properly, as specified in this section. Check the adjustment after someone else uses the seat. Do not attach anything to the head restraint stalks or remove the head restraint. Do not use the seat if the head restraint has been removed. If the head restraint was removed, reinstall and properly adjust the head restraint before an occupant uses the seating position. Failure to follow these instructions can reduce the effectiveness of the head restraint. This may increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision.
Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint that may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
Adjustable head restraints have multiple notches along the stalk to lock them in a desired adjustment position.
The non-adjustable head restraints have a single locking notch to secure them to the seat frame.
Proper Adjustment:
For the adjustable type, align the head restraint so the centre of your ear is approximately level with the centre of the head restraint.
If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place the head restraint at the highest position.
If the head restraint has been removed, ensure that it is reinstalled and locked in place before riding in that designated seating position.
