Seats: Description and Operation
Seats with Side AirbagsSeats with side airbags have a "SIDE AIRBAG" label on the seat-back. Because the component pants (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 a torn or frayed seat-back cover. Replace the seat-back cover.
- After a collision in which the side airbag was deployed, replace the side airbag with new pants. If the seat-back cushion is split, it must be replaced. If the seat-back frame is deformed, it must be replaced.
- Never put after market accessories on the seat (covers, pads, seat heaters, lights, etc.).
