If you want to thoroughly clean the upholstery, it is essential to remove the seats. This allows you to treat the seat cover and carpet properly and ensures perfect drying.

Slide the seat all the way back to access the front mounting pins and remove them. Similarly, slide the seat all the way forward and remove the rear pins.

Then, lift the seat to access the airbag connector and disconnect the battery before unplugging the connector to avoid triggering the warning light.
