Seats and Stowage66
Seat heaters*
You can heat the surfaces of the seats and of the backrests of the front
seats and the two outer rear seats.
Front seats
– You can switch on and adjust the heaters of the driver and front
passenger seats by turning the rotary controls and ⇒ fig. 62,
respectively.
Rear seats
– You can switch on and adjust the heaters of the left and right rear seats
by turning the rotary controls and ⇒ fig. 63, respectively.
If the rotary controls are in the 0 position, the seat heater is switched off. When the
seat heater is switched on, the numerical marking of the rotary control is illumi-
nated. The control range extends from 1 to 5.
Caution
• You should not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply pressure at specific points
in order to avoid damaging the heating elements of the seat heaters.
• Do not clean the seats moist ⇒ page 178.
• If you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g. through medi-
cation, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we recommend not
to use the seat heating. This can lead to burns on the back, the posterior and the
legs which are difficult to heal. If the seat heating is used, we recommend to make
regular breaks in your journey when driving long distances, so that in specific cases
as mentioned above the body can recuperate from the stress of the journey. Please
consult your doctor, who can evaluate your specific condition.
Note
The seat heating should only be switched on when the engine is running. This has
a significant effect of saving on the battery capacity.
Pedals
You should use only footmats which do not obstruct the movement of the pedals
and have an anti-slip protection.
Operation of the pedals must not be hindered!
