Removal Method: Locate the buckle switch below the headrest support posts, press the buckle to remove the headrest. Here is some information about car headrests: 1. Car headrests are both a comfort feature and a safety device. 2. In the event of a rear-end collision, the human body tends to jerk backward due to inertia, subjecting the vulnerable neck and head to acceleration or deceleration forces. The headrest provides cushioning to protect the head. 3. There are two main types: non-adjustable and adjustable. Adjustable car headrests are further divided into manually adjustable and automatically adjustable types. Manually adjustable headrests only allow for one-way height adjustment, while automatically adjustable headrests can be adjusted in two dimensions automatically.
Removing the front headrests of the 2019 Sagitar is actually quite simple. As someone who frequently tinkers with car interiors, I always do it myself when cleaning or changing covers. Usually, there's a small button on the side of the headrest post where it meets the seat. You need to press that button firmly while pulling the headrest upwards. The first time I did it, I almost damaged it because the button got stuck, but spraying some lubricant made it much easier. Remember not to pull too hard, or the headrest posts might scratch the seat leather. Once removed, it's convenient for deep cleaning those hard-to-reach dirty spots or replacing the headrest covers. I recommend lowering the seat first and having some tools handy just in case. The Sagitar's design is quite reliable, though the button is a bit hidden—practice makes perfect.
As someone who frequently works on car repairs, I've noticed that removing the front headrests on the 2019 Sagitar requires pressing a mechanical button, usually located at the base or side of the headrest support rods. Look carefully and you'll definitely find it. Don't press the button too lightly, or the headrest latch won't release, and you'll need to pull it upward at the same time. It's best to wear gloves during the operation to avoid getting grease on your hands. Many people unfamiliar with the process can easily damage the button, which would require replacing the entire headrest—costly and troublesome. Before removal, it's advisable to recline the seat slightly for easier access. After removal, check if the latch is deformed; if it's normal, you can reinstall it. This design in the Sagitar is similar to other Volkswagen models, with the button hidden under a plastic cover. Regular checks during maintenance can help prevent malfunctions.
