&Lumbar support
Pull the lever forward or backward.
Pulling the lever forward will increase the
amount of support for your lower back.
Pulling the lever backward will decrease
the amount of support for your lower back. Seat heater (if equipped)The seat heater is equipped in the front seats.
The seat heater operates when the igni-
tion switch is in the
“ON ”position.
The seat heater can be adjusted in three
levels. Press the button to activate the
seat heater. Each subsequent press of the
button will reduce the level. Pushing the
button four times or keeping the button
pressed for approximately 1 second will
turn the heater off. While the seat heater is
operating, its operating level is shown by
the number of illuminated indicators. To
warm the seat as quickly as possible, set
the heater with three indicators illumi-nated. When the vehicle
’s interior is warmed
enough or before you leave the vehicle,
always turn the switch off.
CAUTION
. There is a possibility that people
with delicate skin may suffer
slight burns even at low tempera-
tures if they use the seat heater
for a long period of time. When
using the heater, always be sure
to warn the persons concerned.
. Do not put anything on the seat
which insulates against heat,
such as a blanket, cushion, or
similar items. This may cause the
seat heater to overheat.
NOTE
Use of the seat heater for a long period
of time while the engine is not running
can cause battery discharge. Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
