Seat warmer (if equipped)
The front seats can be electrically
heated individually when the ignition
switch is ON. When you depress the
seat warmer switch, a thermostat
regulates seat temperature. Each
time you push the button the temper-
ature setting of the seat changes. To
deactivate the heating system,
depress the switch until the indicator
light on the button turns off.
✽✽
NOTICE
• If the seat warmer doesn't work
when the ambient temperature is
below 21 °C (70 °F), have the sys-
tem checked by an authorised
dealer.
• When cleaning the seats, do not
use an organic solvent such as
thinner, benzene, alcohol and
petrol. Doing so may damage the
surface of the heater or seats.
• To prevent overheating the seat
warmer, do not place blankets,
cushions or seat covers on the
seats whilst the seat warmer is in
operation.
• Do not place heavy or sharp
objects on seats equipped with
seat warmers. Damage to the seat
warming components could occur.
