Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Headrest
The driver's and front passenger's seats are equipped with a headrest for the occupant's safety and comfort. The headrest not only provides comfort for the driver and front passenger, but also helps protect the head and neck in the event of a rear collision. For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the headrest should be adjusted so the middle of the headrest is at the same height of the center of gravity of an occupant's head.Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Front Propeller Shaft
