All of headrests can be removed. To do so, first lift the headrest up to its highest position. Then press and hold the Release button on the headrest support while pulling the headrest up until it is removed. Tip Always store a removed headrest in a secure location, so that it doesn’t cause damage in the event of hard braking.
