Follow these precautions whenever
you use the seat heaters:Use the HI setting only to heat the
seats quickly, because it draws
large amounts of current f rom the
battery.
If the engine is lef t idling f or an
extended period, do not use the
seat heaters, even on the LO
setting. It can weaken the battery,
causing hard starting.
In the LO setting, the heater runs
continuously. It does not cycle with
temperature changes.
In the HI setting, the heater turns off
when the seat gets warm, and turns
back on after the seat’s temperature
drops.

keep the seat warm.
Both f ront seats are equipped with
seat heaters. The passenger seat is
