Heated Seats

  • Place heavy objects on the seat.
  • Do not turn on the heated seat if water or any other liquid has spilled on the seat. Allow the seat to dry completely.

Press this symbol to scroll through the heat settings and turn it off. More indicator lights indicate warmer settings.

Ventilated Seats

  • Do not spill liquid on the front seats. This may cause the ventilation holes to become blocked and not function properly.
  • Do not place cargo or objects under the seats. They may block the air intake, causing the ventilation holes to not function properly.

Ventilated seats operate only when the engine is running.

Press this symbol to view the various ventilation settings and turn the function off. A greater number of indicator lights indicates a higher fan speed.

If the engine speed drops below 350 rpm while seat ventilation is on, the function turns off automatically. You will need to reactivate it.
