Follow these precautions whenever
you use the seat heaters:
Both front seats are equipped with
seat heaters. The passenger seat
only has heaters in the seat bottom
because of the side airbag system.
The ignition switch must be in the
ON (II) position to use them. Push
the HI side of the switch to rapidly
heat up the seat. After the seat
reaches a comfortable temperature,
push the LO side of the switch. This
will keep the seat warm.
In HI, the heater turns off when the
seat gets warm, and turns back on
after the seat temperature drops.
In LO, the heater runs continuously.
It does not cycle with temperature
changes.
Use the HI setting only to heat the
seats quickly, because it draws
large amounts of current from the
battery.
If the engine is left idling for an
extended period, do not use the
seat heaters even on the LO
setting. It can weaken the battery,
causing hard starting.
