WARNING

The  passenger  occupant  detection  system  pressure  sensor

-2- is permanently glued to the seat cushion -1-. It is not pos‐

sible to remove and install separately. The passenger occu‐

pant detection system pressure sensor must be replaced with

the seat cushion.
On vehicles with seat heating, the passenger occupant detec‐

tion system pressure sensor and the seat heating element are

a shared component.

Note

♦

To prevent any removed components from being installed again by mistake, the components should be

separated from each other and disposed.

♦

The following work applies to these components.

♦

The components pictured can vary in form and appearance from the present vehicle. However the assembly

and functionality are identical.
