Kia Soul: Seat / Headrest (for front seat)

The driver's and front passenger's seats are equipped with a headrest for the
occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort for the driver and front passenger, but
also helps protect the head and neck in the event of a collision.
WARNING
- For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should
be adjusted so the middle of the headrest is at the same height of the center
of gravity of an occupant's head. Generally, the center of gravity of most people's
head is similar with the height of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust the headrest
as close to your head as possible. For this reason, the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the seatback is not recommended.
- Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed as severe injury
to the occupants may occur in the event of an accident. Headrests may provide
protection against neck injuries when properly adjusted.
- Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver's seat while the
vehicle is in motion.
