Subaru Legacy BN/BS (2015-2019) Owners Manual: Head restraint adjustment

Both the driver's seat and front passenger's seat are equipped with head restraints.

Both head restraints are adjustable in the following ways.

Head restraint height adjustment

1. Head restraint
2.  Release button

To raise: Pull the head restraint up.

To lower: Push the head restraint down while pressing the release button on the top of the seatback.

To remove: While pressing the release button, pull out the head restraint.

To install: Install the head restraint into the holes that are located on the top of the seatback until the head restraint locks. Press and hold the release button to lower the head restraint.

Each head restraint should be adjusted so that the center of the head restraint is closest to the top of the occupant's ears.

Head restraint angle adjustment

The angle of the head restraint can be adjusted in several steps. While maintaining a suitable driving posture, adjust the head restraint to a position where the back of your head is as close to the head restraint as possible.

To tilt: Tilt the head restraint by hand to the preferred position. A click will be audible when the head restraint is locked.

To return: Tilt the head restraint once as far forward as it can go. The head restraint will automatically return to the fully upright position. Then, adjust the head restraint again to the preferred angle.
