By pressing this control, you can loosen the headrest attachment with your left hand and use your right hand to raise, lower, or tilt it according to the driver's preferences. In the same way, it is possible to remove it, but at that point, you will need to unscrew the screws of the under-seat control and proceed with its extraction; however, it is better to remove the headrest only if you need to install a child seat.
