It is the same button that you use to change the angle of the seat back; instead of back and forward, move it up or down.

Yes, there are buttons to move the seat cushion up, down, and rake angle; and a vertical button that changes rake angle of the upright (same button moves the headrest up and down); there is also a button for stiffening the lumbar.

He needs to download the driver's manual from the stickies.

The headrests also "tilt" forward and backward manually. Just grab them and move them where you want them.

(Bet you didn't know that!)
