Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

Restraints and Safety Systems: Application and ID




- Seats with side airbags have a tag attached to the seat-back. Because the component parts (seat-back cover, cushion, etc.) of seats with and without airbags are different, make sure you install only the correct replacement parts.
- When cleaning, do not saturate the seat with liquid, and do not spray steam on the seat.
- Do not repair torn or frayed seat-back covers. Replace the seat-back cover.




- After a collision in which the side airbag was deployed, replace the seat-back cover and the side airbag with new parts. If the seat-back cushion is split, it must be replaced. If the seat-back frame is deformed, it must be replaced. If you are not sure if the seat-back frame is deformed, check the side airbag upper mount base as shown. If the distance a is more than 24 mm, replace the seat-back frame.
