Doing so may prevent the front passenger airbag system from activating correctly, disable the system or cause the front passenger airbag to inflate accidentally, and result in death or serious injury.

NOTICE:
Replace the occupant classification ECU, occupant detection sensor, seat cushion cover pad and seat cushion cover as a 4 part set (see supply set part No.).
