• 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 condition must exercise care when using the
seat heater. It may cause burns even at low tempera -
tures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat or seatback that insu -

that has been overheated could cause serious burns due
to the increased surface temperature of the seat.
