2023 Chevrolet Traverse Owners Manual - Head Restraints



Head Restraints

Front Seats

Warning

With head restraints that are not installed and adjusted properly, there is a greater chance that occupants will suffer a neck/spinal injury in a crash. Do not drive until the head restraints for all occupants are installed and adjusted properly.

The vehicle's front seats have adjustable head restraints in the outboard seating positions.

Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant's head. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash. The height of the head restraint can be adjusted.

To raise or lower the head restraint, press the button located on the side of the head restraint, and pull up or push the head restraint down, and release the button. Pull and push on the head restraint after the button is released to make sure that it is locked in place. The front seat outboard head restraints are not removable.

Rear Seats

Second Row Seats

The vehicle’s second row seats have adjustable head restraints in the outboard seating positions. The height of the head restraint can be adjusted. Pull the head restraint up to raise it. Try to move the head restraint to make sure that it is locked in place.

To lower the head restraint, press the button, located on the top of the seatback, and push the head restraint down. Try to move the head restraint after the button is released to make sure that it is locked in place.

Always adjust the head restraint so that the top of the restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant's head. The second row seat outboard head restraints are never intended to be removed. Restraints with only a single push button located at the top of the seatback are not removable. While restraints with dual push buttons at the top of the seatback also should not be removed, the following instructions can be used to avoid damaging the vehicle and to safely reinstall the restraints before driving. Always reinstall the restraints before driving the vehicle.

Warning

With head restraints that are not installed and adjusted properly, there is a greater chance that occupants will suffer a neck/spinal injury in a crash. Do not drive until the head restraints are installed and adjusted properly.

To remove the head restraint:

1. Partially fold the seatback forward. See Rear Seats 0 44 for additional information.

2. Press both buttons on the head restraint posts at the same time, and pull up on the head restraint.

3. Store the head restraint in a secure place.

To reinstall the head restraint:

1. Insert the head restraint posts into the holes in the top of the seatback. The notches on the posts must face the driver side of the vehicle.

2. Push the head restraint down. If necessary, press the height adjustment release button to further lower the head restraint. See Rear Seats 0 44. 3. Try to move the head restraint to make sure that it is locked in place.

Third Row Seats

The vehicle’s third row seats have head restraints in the outboard seating positions that cannot be adjusted up or down.

The third row outboard head restraints are not removable. The third row outboard head restraints are designed to be folded. The head restraint can be folded to allow for better visibility when the rear seat is unoccupied. When folding the seatback down, the head restraint will automatically fold out of the way as the seat is folded down. Return the lowered head restraint to the upright position until it locks into place. Push and pull on the head restraint to make sure it is locked. When an occupant is in the seat, always return the head restraint to the upright position. Pull the head restraint up and push it rearward until it locks into place. Push and pull on the head restraint to make sure that it is locked.
