Mazda CX-3: Head Restraints / Removal/Installation

Mazda CX-3 (2015-2026) Owner's Manual / Essential Safety Equipment / Seats / Head Restraints / Removal/Installation

To remove the head restraint, pull it up while pressing the stop-catch. To install the head restraint, insert the legs into the holes while pressing the stop-catch.

WARNING

Always drive with the head restraints installed when seats are being used and make sure they are properly installed: Driving with the head restraints not installed is dangerous. With no support behind your head, your neck could be seriously injured in a collision.

After installing a head restraint, try lifting it to make sure that it does not pull out: Driving with an unsecured head restraint is dangerous as the effectiveness of the head restraint will be compromised which could cause it to unexpectedly detach from the seat.

CAUTION

  • When installing a head restraint, make sure that it is installed correctly with the front of the head restraint facing forward. If the head restraint is installed incorrectly, it could detach from the seat during a collision and result in injury.
  • The head restraints on each of the front and rear seats are specialized to each seat. Do not switch around the head restraint positions. If a head restraint is not installed to its correct seat position, the effectiveness of the head restraint during a collision will be compromised which could cause injury.

    Height Adjustment

    Adjust the head restraint so that the center is even with the top of the passenger's ears. To raise a head restraint, pull it up to the desired position...
