Press button
M, then press button 1 or 2
within four seconds.
An audible signal indicates that the position has
been stored.

3:High.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:

Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the
seat.
–
Do not kneel or stand on the seat.
–
Do not spill liquids onto the seat.
