How to Remove the Front Seat Headrest of Volkswagen Tharu?
2 Answers
Here is the method to remove the front seat headrest of Volkswagen Tharu: 1. Locate the round button approximately five centimeters below the midpoint between the two steel tubes of the headrest. Press the circular plastic button beneath the headrest support rods, which functions as a small switch. 2. With one hand pressing the adjustment button, use the other hand to move the headrest support rods up and down while lifting the headrest upwards. The headrest can then be removed. Here is some related information: Car headrests are part of the mandatory national automotive certification and inspection requirements, with strict regulations on material, strength, energy absorption, position, and size. Current national standards only mandate the installation of headrests for front seats in passenger cars, while there is no compulsory requirement for rear seats. Similarly, international standards, such as those in the European Union, do not enforce mandatory headrest installation for rear seats.
Last year I picked up the Volkswagen Tharu, and often need to remove the front headrests for cleaning. There are two symmetrical small buttons at the top of the seatback – you'll see them when bending over outside the car door. Press both buttons downward simultaneously, then lift straight up, and the headrest will slide out smoothly. The first time I made the mistake of pressing just one side and failed, only later realizing both need to be pressed together to unlock. After removal, it's convenient to clean the fabric or replace with a new headrest for added comfort. When reinstalling, align the rail grooves and press down until you hear a 'click' to lock it in place. Avoid using excessive force to prevent wearing the slots – proper maintenance extends seat lifespan. Volkswagen's design is quite user-friendly, much simpler than older models.
