Removing front seat, any air bag concerns?

[Homeworld8118]

I have to remove the driver seat to repair the seat heater and was wondering if there is and extra caution to be taken with the airbags in the seat. Are they set off by motion like a normal bag or are they tripper off of the main air bags? Thanks for the help!

Always disconnect the battery if working near a airbag.

Thanks for the info, will do next time. I was actually able to remove the controls and the side of the lower cushion cover enough to access the heating pad. Just required a touch of solder on one end of the element and good to go!
