Nissan Maxima Owners Manual: Head restraints/headrests
WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement the other vehicle safety systems. They may provide additional protection against injury in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable head restraints/headrests 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/headrest stalks or remove the head restraint/headrest. Do not use the seat if the head restraint/headrest has been removed. If the head restraint/headrest was removed, reinstall and properly adjust the head restraint/headrest before an occupant uses the seating position. Failure to follow these instructions can reduce the effectiveness of the head restraints/headrests. This may increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision.
The illustration shows the seating positions equipped with head restraints/headrests.
Indicates the seating position is

Indicates the seating position

+ Indicates the seating position is not equipped with a head restraint or headrest (if applicable).
Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint/headrest that may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
Adjustable head restraints/headrests have multiple notches along the stalk(s) to lock them in a desired adjustment position.
The non-adjustable head restraints/headrests have a single locking notch to secure them to the seat frame.
Proper Adjustment:
- For the adjustable type, align the head restraint/headrest so the center of your ear is approximately level with the center of the head restraint/headrest.
- If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place the head restraint/headrest at the highest position.
If the head restraint/headrest has been removed, ensure that it is reinstalled and locked in place before riding in that designated seating position.
