Seat warmers
Front seat warmers
(if equipped)
Seat warmers are provided to warm the
seats during cold weather.
To prevent damage to the seat warm-
ers and seats:
• Never use a solvent such as paint
thinner, benzene, alcohol or gaso-
line to clean the seats.
• Do not place heavy or sharp objects
on seats equipped with seat warm-
ers.
• Do not change the seat cover. It may
damage the seat warmer.
While the engine is running, push either
of the switches to warm the driver's seat
or front passenger's seat.
During mild weather or under conditions
where the operation of the seat warmer
is not needed, keep the switches in the
OFF position.
NOTICE
The seat warmers can cause a
SERIOUS BURN, even at low tem-
peratures and especially if used for
long periods of time.
Passengers must be able to feel if
the seat is becoming too warm so
they can turn it off, if needed.
People who cannot detect tempera-
ture change or pain to the skin
should use extreme caution, espe-
cially the following types of pas-
sengers:
•
Infants, children, elderly or dis-
abled persons, or hospital outpa-
tients.
•
People with sensitive skin or who
burn easily.
•
Fatigued individuals.
•
Intoxicated individuals.
•
People taking medication that
can cause drowsiness or sleepi-
ness.
WARNING
NEVER place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat when
the seat warmer is in operation,
such as a blanket or seat cushion.
This may cause the seat warmer to
overheat, causing a burn or dam-
age to the seat.
