REMOVAL
When removing or installing the seat trim, handle it carefully to keep dirt out and avoid damage.
CAUTION:
- Before removing the front seat, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect both battery cables and wait and least 3 minutes.
- When checking the power seat circuit for continuity using a circuit tester, do not confuse its connector with the side air bag module connector. Such an error may cause the air bag to deploy.
- Do not drop, tilt, or bump the side air bag module while installing the seat. Always handle it with care.
- After front side air bag module inflates, front seatback assembly must be replaced.
