seam in the seat’s trim cover and opens into the space
between the occupant and the door. The airbag inflates
at a very high speed and with enough force to injure
you if you are not belted and seated properly, or if
items are positioned in the area where the front-seat-
mounted side airbag inflates. This especially applies to
children.

The following requirements must be strictly adhered to:

• Do not make any modifications to the front seat

components, assembly, or to the seat cover in any
way.

• Do not use prior or future model year seat covers

not designated for the specific model being re-
paired. Always use the correct seat cover specified
for the vehicle.

• Do not replace the seat cover with an aftermarket

seat cover.

• Do not add a secondary seat cover other than those

approved by DaimlerChrysler/Mopar.

• At no time should any supplemental restraint sys-

tem (SRS) component or SRS related component or
fastener be modified or replaced with any part
except

those

which

are

approved

by

DaimlerChrysler/Mopar.

WARNING!

Unapproved modifications or service procedures to
the front seat assembly, its related components, or
seat cover may inadvertently change the airbag de-
ployment in case of a frontal crash. This could result
in death or serious injury to the driver or front seat
passenger if the vehicle is involved in an accident. A
modified vehicle may not comply with required
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).
