Removal and Installation

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 atleast 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.
- Front passenger seat is equipped with an Occupant Classification System sensor and control module. Do not disassemble front passenger seat cushion assembly or remove the trim as this will affect the Occupant Classification System calibration.
- Always replace passenger seat cushion as an assembly.
