WARNING!
•DO NOT allow people to ride in any area of your

bar. Lift up on the bar located on the front of the seat near
the floor. Using body pressure, move forward and rear-
ward on the seat to be sure the seat adjusters have
latched.

WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the head restraints removed or
improperly adjusted could cause serious injury or
death in the event of a collision. The head restraints
should always be checked prior to operating the
vehicle and never adjusted while the vehicle is in
motion. Always adjust the head restraints when the
vehicle is in PARK.
Front Heated Seats — If Equipped
The controls for each heater are located near the bottom
center of the instrument panel (below the heater/air
conditioning controls).
After turning the ignition ON, you can choose from High,
Low or Off heat settings. Amber indicator lights in each
switch indicate the level of heat in use. Two indicator
lights will illuminate for High, one for Low and none for
Off.Press the switch once to select High-level heat-
ing. Press the switch a second time to select
Low-level heating. Press the switch a third time
to shut the heating elements Off.
When High-level heating is selected, the heaters provide
a boosted heat level during the first four minutes of
operation after heating is activated. The heat output then
drops to the normal High-level. If High-level heating is
selected, the system will automatically switch to the
Low-level after approximately 30 minutes of continuous
operation. At that time, the number of illuminated LEDs
changes from two to one, indicating the change. Opera-
tion on the Low-level setting also turns Off automatically
after approximately 30 minutes.
NOTE: Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be felt
within two to five 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, ex-
haustion or other physical condition 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. To avoid
heated seat surfaces coming in contact and poten-
tial seat overheating, always ensure that the seat
heater is in the off position before placing any of
the seats into a folded flat position (if equipped).

sunshade will open automatically as the sunroof opens.

rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with
