When cleaning, use a damp cloth to clean the seat. Do not soak the seat with liquid. Do not spray steam on the seat.
Do not repair a torn or frayed seat-back cover. Replace the seat-back cover.
After a collision where the side airbag was deployed, replace the side airbag and seat frame with new parts. If the seat-back cushion is split, it must be replaced.
Never put aftermarket accessories on the seat (covers, pads, seat heaters, lights, etc.).
