HEATED SEATS
On some models, the front and rear seats may be equipped with heaters located in the
seat cushions and seat backs.
WARNING!
• 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 temperatures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat or seatback that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that
has been overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, the driver’s heated seat can be pro-
grammed through the instrument cluster display to come on during a remote start. Refer
to “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner’s
Manual on www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals for further information.
Front Heated Seats
There are two heated seat switches that allow the driver and passenger to operate the seats
independently. The controls for each heater are located on the switch bank below the
climate controls.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat
settings. Amber indicator lights in each
switch indicate the level of heat in use. Two
indicator lights will illuminate for HI, one
for LO and none for OFF.
Push the switch once to select HI-level
heating. Push the switch a second time to
select LO-level heating. Push the switch a
third time to shut the heating elements off.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be
felt within two to five minutes.
If the HI-level setting is selected, the sys-
tem will automatically switch to LO-level
after approximately 60 minutes of continuous operation. At that time, the display will
change from HI to LO, indicating the change. The LO-level setting will turn off automati-
cally after approximately 45 minutes.
