Safety instructions for seat covers for vehicles with side airbags.
the recess for the side airbag on the seat cover is marked with a
label and may be confused with the seat area or other part of the
seat cover.
the recess in the seat back may be positioned only at the side
where the side airbags are attached in the original cover. Always
ensure that the edge of the seat cover is aligned with the edge of
the original seat cover. After the seat cover is cleaned, these safety
instructions must be followed when replacing the seat cover.
If the cover changes its position, correct this immediately otherwise
the side airbags may not operate properly.
no liability is accepted if these safety instructions are not followed
precisely.
FAQ:
How can I still use the seat belts which are attached to the
rear seat after putting on the rear seat cover?
With some models, the standard seat belt attachments are atta-
ched directly to the rear seat. the belts can still be used by simply
making a small slit in the appropriate place in the rear seat cover.
the cut should be made with very sharp blade or razor and should
not be larger than the width of the corresponding seat belt.
In order to prevent the cut from tearing when under stress, support
it from the back using a suitable material such as fabric-backed
adhesive tape.
