WARNING!
• Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatbackis not securely locked into position, the seat will not provide the proper
stability for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could
cause serious injury.
• The cargo area in the rear of the vehicle (with the rear seatbacks in the locked-up or folded-down position) should not be used as a play area by
children when the vehicle is in motion. They could be seriously injured in a
collision. Children should be seated and using the proper restraint system.
HEATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
• The controls for front heated seats arelocated on the center instrument panel
below the climate controls.
• Press the switch once to select High-level heating. Press the switch a
second time to select Low-level
heating. Press the switch a third time
to shut the heating elements Off.
• If the High-level setting is selected, the system will automatically switch to Low-level after approximately 60 minutes. The Low-level setting will turn Off
automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use,
exhaustion or other physical conditions must exercise care when using the
seat heater. It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a
seat that has been overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased
surface temperature of the seat.
