on the center console between the second row seats.
Each heated seat switch has two settings (HI and LO).
Press the switch once to obtain high heat level, then press
the switch again to obtain low heat level. Pressing the
switch a third time will turn the heated seats off. If you

at low temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
Do not place anything on the seat that insulates
