For a head restraint system to work properly:
Seats
After a collision, the activated restraint should return to its normal position.
Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or from the restraint legs.
If the restraints do not return to their normal position, or in the event of a severe collision, have the vehicle inspected by a Honda dealer.
Do not place any object between an occupant and the seat-back.
Install each restraint in its proper location.
Only use genuine Honda replacement head restraints.

The driver’s and front passenger’s seats have active head restraints. If the vehicle is struck severely from the rear, the occupant properly secured with the seat belt will be pushed against the seat-back and the head restraint will automatically move forward.
This reduces the distance between the restraint and the occupant’s head. It also helps protect the occupants
