Seat Warmers

Front Seat Warmers (if equipped)

Seat warmers are provided to warm the seats in cold weather.

WARNING

Seat warmers can cause SERIOUS BURNS even at low temperatures, especially with prolonged use. Occupants should be able to feel when the seat becomes too hot so that they can turn it off if necessary.

Persons who cannot detect changes in temperature or pain in the skin should use special caution, especially the following occupants:

• Infants, children, elderly persons, disabled persons, or outpatients.
• Persons with sensitive skin or those who sunburn easily.
• Fatigued persons.
• Persons under the influence of alcohol.
• Persons taking medications that may cause drowsiness.

WARNING

NEVER place anything that insulates against heat, such as a blanket or seat cushion, on the seat while the seat warmer is on. This may cause the seat to overheat, which may result in burns or damage to the seat.

NOTICE

To avoid damage to the seat warmers and seats:

• Never use solvents such as paint thinner, benzene, alcohol, or gasoline to clean the seats.
• Do not place heavy or sharp objects on heated seats.
• Do not replace the seat covering. This may damage the seat warmer.

With the engine running, press either switch to warm the driver's seat or front passenger's seat.

In mild weather, or when seat warmers are not needed, keep the switches in the OFF position.

• Manual Temperature Control

Each time you press the switch, the seat temperature setting changes as follows:

• Automatic temperature control. The seat warmer automatically controls the seat temperature to prevent low-temperature burns after being manually turned on.

If HIGH is selected manually again, the temperature will be controlled automatically.

• If the switch is pressed for more than 1.5 seconds while the seat warmer is on, the seat warmer will turn off.

• The seat warmer is in the OFF position by default whenever the ignition switch is in the ON position.

Information

When the seat warmer switch is in the ON position, the seat warmer system automatically turns on or off depending on the seat temperature.
