damage before every installation.
Do not attempt any repair work on the
vehicle trim panels (top trim panels for A-
pillar, B-pillar, C-pillar and D-pillar).
Make sure the trim panel is securely fitted
during installation.
Side curtain airbags must only be folded at
its intended location (transition of roof to A-

To carry out repairs behind the side curtain
airbag, always remove the entire unit first.
After removal, always carry the side curtain
airbag in the folded position.
