29) 30) 31) 32)
The seats are electrically heated. The
ignition must be switched ON.
Press the seat warmer switch fig. 11 to
illuminate the indicator light while the
ignition is switched ON.
The mode changes as follows each
time the seat warmer switch is pressed.
IMPORTANT Do not use organic
solvents to clean the seat. It may
damage the seat surface and the
heater.
NoteIf the ignition is switched off while the
seat warmer is operating (High, Mid or
Low) and then switched ON again, the
seat warmer will automatically operate
at the temperature set before switching
off the ignition.
Use the seat warmer when the
engine is running. Leaving the seat
warmer on for long periods with the
engine not running could cause the
battery power to be depleted.
The temperature of the seat warmer
cannot be adjusted beyond High, Mid
and Low because the seat warmer is
controlled by a thermostat.
WARNING
15)Make sure the adjustable components
of a seat are locked in place. Adjustable
seats and seatbacks that are not securely
locked are dangerous. In a sudden stop or
collision, the seat or seatback could move,
causing injury. Make sure the adjustable
components of the seat are locked in place
by attempting to slide the seat forward and
backward and rocking the seatback.1003010202-12A-003AB

30)Do not use the seat warmer with
anything having high moisture retention
ability such as a blanket or cushion on the
seat. The seat may be heated excessively
and cause a low-temperature burn.
31)Do not place objects on the seat or on
the backrest that may isolate the heat,
such as a cover or a pillow. It may cause
the seat heating device to overheat. Sitting
on an overheated seat may cause severe
burns due to the increase in temperature of
the seat surface.
32)Do not place heavy objects with sharp
projections on the seat, or insert needles or
pins into it. This could cause the seat to
become excessively heated and result in
injury from a minor burn.
IMPORTANT
7)The fabric upholstery for the seats has
been designed to withstand long-term wear
deriving from normal use of the vehicle.
Nevertheless, some precautions are
required. Avoid prolonged and/or excessive
rubbing involving clothing accessories such
as metal buckles, bosses, Velcro strips and
the like, which, by applying a high pressure
on the fabric in a limited area, could cause
it to break, thereby damaging the
upholstery.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
33)
Non-Adjustable Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with non
adjustable head restraints on the
driver's and passenger's seatbacks.
The non adjustable head restraints
consist of a trimmed foam covering
over the upper structure of the
seatbacks and are intended to help
protect you and the passenger from
neck injury.
Adjust the seatbacks to their upright,
on-road positions so that the head
restraint is positioned as close as
possible to the back of your head.
WARNING
33)Make sure the seatbacks are properly
adjusted to their upright, on-road positions
before the vehicle is driven. Driving with the
seatbacks not adjusted properly is
dangerous. With no support behind your
head, your neck could be seriously injured
in a collision.
