higher temperature.
To prevent uncomfortable overheating of the seats,
the heating elements are thermostatically regulated to automatically
maintain the ternperaturc at
the selected setting. A telltale light in the
control switch reminds

the battery, the heated seats can
only be used whcn the ignition is turned
on, and are deactivated when the ignition is turned
off.

closest to the top of your ears.
