SAFETY 253
(Continued)
The passenger seat assembly contains critical OCS compo-
nents that may affect Passenger Advanced Front Air Bag
infl
ation. In order for the OCS to properly classify the seated
weight of a front seat passenger, the OCS components must
function as designed. Do not make any modifications to the
front passenger seat components, assembly, or to the seat
cover. If the seat, trim cover, or cushion needs service for any
reason, take the vehicle to an authorized dealer. Only FCA
US LLC approved seat accessories may be used.
The following requirements must be strictly followed:
• D
o not modify the front passenger seat assembly or
com
ponents in any way.
• Do not use prior or future model year seat covers or cush-
ion
s not designated by FCA US LLC for the specific model
bein
g repaired. Always use the correct seat cover and
cushion specified for the vehicle.
• Do not replace the seat cover or cushion with an after-
mar
ket seat cover or cushion.
• D
o not add a secondary seat cover or mat.
• At
no time should any Supplemental Restraint System
(SR
S) component or SRS related component or fastener be
modified or replaced with any part except those which are
approved by FCA US LLC.
Knee Impact Bolsters
The Knee Impact Bolsters help protect the knees of the driver
and
front passenger, and position the front occupants for
improved interaction with the front air bags.
WARNING!
• Unapproved modifications or service procedures to the
pas
senger seat assembly, its related components, seat
cover, or cushion may inadvertently change the air bag
deployment in case of a frontal collision. This could
result in death or serious injury to the front passenger
if the vehicle is involved in a collision. A modified
vehicle may not comply with required Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and/or Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS).
• If it is necessary to modify the air bag system for
per
sons with disabilities, contact an authorized dealer.
WARNING!
• Do not drill, cut, or tamper with the knee impact
bols
ters in any way.
