Subaru Forester: Front seats / Angle adjustment

The angle of the head restraint can be
adjusted in several steps. While maintaining
a suitable driving posture, adjust the
head restraint to a position where the back
of your head is as close to the head
restraint as possible.
To tilt:
Tilt the head restraint by hand to the
preferred position. A click will sound when
the head restraint is locked.
To return:
Tilt the head restraint as far forward as it
can go. The head restraint will automatically
return to the fully upright position.
Then, adjust the head restraint to the
preferred angle.
Head restraints are installed in all secondrow
seats and can be adjusted as described
