FRONT SEAT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
| WARNING | Handling a front seat (with built-in side air bag) improperly can accidentally operate (deploy) the air bag, which may seriously injure you. Read the service warnings before handling a front seat. (See AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE WARNINGS .) (See AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE CAUTIONS .) |
| CAUTION | After removing a front seat, do not operate the slider lever. If the slider lever is operated, the left and right slide positions will deviate, and the slide adjuster may be damaged after the front seat is installed. Verify that there are no malfunctions in the sliding mechanism after installing a front seat. When performing the procedure with a front seat removed from the vehicle, perform the procedure on a clean rag so as not to damage or soil the seat. If any of the following work is performed, perform the seat weight sensor calibration using the M-MDS. (See SEAT WEIGHT SENSOR CALIBRATION .) Replacement with a new seat weight sensor Replacement with a new seat weight sensor control module Replacement with new passenger-side seat parts Disassembly of the passenger-side seat If any of the following work is performed, perform the seat weight sensor inspection using the M-MDS. (See SEAT WEIGHT SENSOR INSPECTION .) Removal of the passenger-side seat Loosening and retightening of passenger-side seat fixing bolts |
Note. When removing the front seat out of the vehicle or putting it back in, it can be performed smoothly by removing the headrest.
