How should the height of the head restraint be properly adjusted?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
The **headrest** is a passive safety device that protects the neck and cervical spine in the event of a sudden impact. To function correctly, it is crucial to adjust its height properly.
- The **top of the headrest** should be aligned with the top of the occupant's head. This ensures that, in the event of an impact, the headrest can support the head and prevent neck injuries.
- The distance between the head and the headrest should be **four centimeters or less**. This minimizes the backward movement of the head during an accident, reducing the risk of cervical injuries.
Therefore, the correct position of the headrest is with its edge between the top of the head and eye level, as indicated in the correct answer.
