lates heat, such as a blanket, cushion, seat
cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may become
overheated.

seat or pierce it with a pin or similar object.
This may result in damage to the climate
controlled seat.
● Any liquid spilled on the seat should be re-
moved immediately with a dry cloth.

To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF
switch. The
indicator will illuminate.
Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn on the system. (See “VEHICLE
