seats are located near the bottom center of the instrument
panel.On vehicles equipped with rear heated seats, the seats
closest to the doors are heated. The controls for these
seats are located on the rear of the center console.

can choose from High, Off, or Low heat settings. Amber
LEDs in the switch indicate the level of heat in use. Two
