Seats: Service Precautions

CAUTION

- If the passenger's seat cushion cover is removed or replaced, make sure to adjust the occupant detection system after installing the seat to the vehicle.
If system adjustment is not performed, the occupant detection system may not function properly.

- The occupant detection system (passenger seat only) control module and the occupant detection sensor are fixed to the seat cushion frame. Never remove the occupant detection control module or the pressure sensor from the seat cushion frame.
- Do not replace the passenger's seat cushion pad by itself. Always replace the seat cushion pad and frame assembly as a set. The seat cushion pad and cushion frame are adjusted as a set at the time of manufacture. If cushion pads and cushion frames are combined from those of other vehicles or other sets, the occupant detection system may not operate properly.
- If the passenger's seat cushion cover is removed, make sure to replace the wire on the seat cushion cover side with a new wire.
- When removing the front seat and second-row seat, follow cautions given in the airbag section.
