Heated Seats
The front seat heater switches are
located to the left and right side of
the center console ashtray.
The rear seat heater switches are
located in each rear door.
The front seat heaters can be
switched on with the key in
steering lock positions 1 or 2, the
rear seat heaters only in steering
lock position 2.
Press switch to turn on heater:
1 Normal heating mode. One
indicator lamp in the switch
lights up.
2 Rapid heating mode. Both
indicator lamps in the switch
light up.
After approximately 5 minutes
in the rapid heating mode, the
heater automatically switches to
normal operation and only one
indicator lamp will stay on.
Turning off heater:
If one indicator lamp is on, press
upper half of switch.
If both indicator lamps are on,
press lower half of switch.
If left on, the heater automatically
turns off after approximately
30 minutes of operation.
When in operation, the seat heater
consumes a large amount of pow­
er. It is advisable not to use the
seat heater longer than necessary.
The seat heaters may automati­
cally switch off if too many power
consumers are switched on at the
same time, or if the battery charge
is low. When this occurs, the in­
dicator lamp in the switch will
blink (both indicator lamps blink
during rapid seat heating). The
seat heaters will switch on again
automatically 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.
