Removing rear seat headrests

If you need more room to fold the rear seats, you can remove the seats' headrests.

There are two buttons involved when removing the headrests. The first button is located on the base of the right headrest support. This is the same button you use to adjust the headrest height. The second button is smaller and located on the base of the left support. This button is integrated into a larger button.

Press and hold both buttons on the support bases.
Move the headrest upwards until it detaches from the seat.

 Warning

Never drive with a passenger sitting in a seat without an attached and properly adjusted headrest. This can lead to fatal or serious personal injury.

Make sure to stow the removed headrests properly while the rear seats are folded down. Always reattach the headrests once you raise the seats again.
