2023 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Head Restraints
HEAD RESTRAINTS SAFETY
Make sure to read and fully understand the relevant warnings before using the features in this section. Failure to observe warnings and cautions may result in vehicle damage, injury, or DEATH in the event of an accident.
Head restraints are designed to support the head, not the back of the neck. The head restraint must be positioned correctly to restrain the rearward movement of the head in a collision.
While stationary, adjust the head restraint so that the top of the head restraint is above the centerline of the head.
Do not drive or carry passengers with the head restraints removed from occupied seats. The absence of a correctly adjusted head restraint increases the risk of neck injury in the event of a collision.
Never adjust the head restraints while the vehicle is in motion. Doing so could potentially cause a loss of vehicle control and personal injury.
Always store a removed head restraint securely.
Head restraints are fitted to all front and rear seats.
MANUAL FRONT-HEAD RESTRAINTS
Make sure the relevant safety warnings have been read and understood before operating any features in this section. See HEAD RESTRAINTS SAFETY.
To adjust the manual front head restraints:
- To raise the head restraint, pull it upward until it clicks and locks into position.
NOTES
Do not try to raise the head restraint further than the third adjustment position.

To remove the head restraint, first move it to the fully raised position. Then:
- Press and hold the buttons on the stem collars.
- With the aid of a second person, lift the head restraint out of the seatback.
To refit a head restraint, make sure it is facing in the correct direction. Insert the stems of the head restraint into the stem collars, and push the head restraint downward until at least the first click.
REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS

To adjust the rear head restraints:

- Press the button on the side of the head restraint to change the angle. Simultaneously move the head restraint to the required position.
NOTES
The rear head restraint must be in the upright position when the seat is occupied.
The rear head restraints can be removed, if required, e.g., to fit larger child seats.
Two people are required to carry out this operation.
