Heated Seats
1 Normal heating mode
2 Rapid heating mode
The seat heaters can be switched on
with the key in steering lock position 2.
Heater operation:
Push in upper switch portion;
position 1 = normal heating mode, one
indicator lamp lights up.
Push in lower switch portion;
position 2 = rapid heating mode, both
indicator lamps light up.
After approximately 5 minutes in the
rapid heating mode, the heater auto­
matically switches to normal operation
and only one indicator lamp will stay
on.
Turning off heater:
If one indicator lamp is on, press in
upper part of switch, position 1.
If both indicator lamps are on, press in
lower part of switch, position 2.
The heater automatically turns off after
approximately 30 minutes of operation.
Notes:
When in operation, the seat heater
consumes a large amount of power. It is
advisable not to use the seat heater
longer than necessary.
The seat heaters may automatically
switch off if too many power consumers
are switched on at the same time, or if
the battery charge is low. When this oc­
curs, the indicator lamp in the switch will
blink (both indicator lamps blink during
rapid seat heating). The seat heaters
will switch on again as soon as sufficient
voltage is available.
If the blinking of the indicator lamps is
distracting to you, the seat heaters can
be switched off.
