A mixed installation  , e.g. "old" padding and "new" control unit, is not permitted  .

The padding with affixed mat for occupant classification system and the occupant classification control unit are calibrated together by the manufacturer and must therefore only be replaced as a complete unit.

The occupant classification control unit must not  be coded.

The mat  for the occupant classification system must not  be removed  from the foam part.
