Headrest

[genesys]

Hi, I am driving a FL C180. Does anybody know how to remove the headrest?

Cheers

The FL W204 model has a new safety feature called the head restraint whiplash protection system. The new C Class is equipped with an 'active' head restraint. The car automatically detects when it has been struck from behind and the front surface of the head restraint is moved forward, providing earlier support to the occupant's neck. Mercedes Benz showed that the system would work over a broad range of speeds and impact severities.

So, it's not advisable to remove the headrest.

do u know if the pre-fl w204 1.6 c180k has this feature as well?

i felt my head touching (or rather, slightly hitting) the head restraint when the big bike hit me.

around 20hrs already. no feeling of neck/shoulder pain.

mine was triggered when hit from the rear. Must say was good slight bump and it reacted. I reacted initially thinking it was a very badd accident till my headrest also explode haha.
