Rear
The operating concept is the same as for the
front heated seats.
Temperature distribution in front
The heat output can be distributed variously in
the seat cushion and the backrest.
Control Center, for principle details, refer to
page16.
Ignition key in position 2:
1.Select "Climate".
2.Select "Seat heater distribution" and press
the controller.
3.Move the controller to the left or right to
select "Driver" or "Passenger".
4.Turn the controller. The adjustment is
applied; the field can be changed.
Active seat ventilation*
The system progresses one step through the
control sequence each time you press the but-
ton.
To switch off: press the button longer.
The highest position with three LEDs is
used for rapid cooling, e.g. when the vehi-
cle has gotten heated up. After a short time, the
system is automatically switched down one
position in order to prevent excessive cooling.<
Active seat*
The seat cushion is actively varied by alter-
nately raising and lowering the right and left half
of the seat cushion. This reduces muscular ten-
sion and fatigue to help prevent lower back
pain.
Press the button to switch on; the LED lights
up.
If you switch off the active seat, it can take up
to 1 minute before the two halves of the seat
cushion have returned to their initial position.

settings in ignition key position 1.

ance with both of these conditions.

mate control by pressing any of its buttons
