Push the switch to either “HI” or “LO” to turn on the heating element in
the seat.
- .- Designed primarily for use on damp and chilly days, the “LO” setting
warms the seatback and cushion until the seat approximates body
temperature. On colder days, the
“HI” setting heats the seats to an even
__ higher temperature. To prevent uncomfortable overheating of the seats,
the heating elements are thermostatically regulated to automatically
maintain the temperature at the setting selected. A telltale light on the
control switch reminds you that the heating system is in use.
To preserve
the battery, the heated seats can only be used when the ignition is turned
on, and is deactivated when the ignition is turned off.

BLOCK HEATER (OPTION)
In very cold weather, 0 F (-18 C) or colder, the engine block heater can
help. You'll get easier starting and better fuel economy during engine
warm-up.
To use the block heater:
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and unwrap the electrical cord.
3. Plug it into a normal, grounded 110-volt outlet.
Plugging the cord into an ungrounded outlet could cause an
electrical shock.
Also, the wrong kind of extension cord could
overheat and cause
a fire. You could be seriously injured. Plug
the cord into
a properly grounded three-prong 110-volt outlet. If
the cord won't reach, use a heavy-duty three-prong extension
cord rated for at least
15 amps.

depends on the weather, the kind of oil you have, and some other things.

Snow can trap exhaust gases under your vehicle. This can cause
deadly CO (carbon monoxide) gas to get inside. CO could
overcome you and kill you. You can’t see it or smell it,
so you
might not know it is in your vehicle. Clear away snow from
around the base
of your vehicle , especially any that is blocking
your exhaust pipe. And check around again from time to time to
be sure snow doesn’t collect there.
Open a window just a little on the side
of the vehicle that’s away
from the wind. This will help keep CO out.
Run your engine only as long as you must. This saves fuel. When you run
the engine, make it go a little faster than just idle. That is, push the
accelerator slightly. This uses less fuel for the heat that you get and it
keeps the battery charged. You
will need a well-charged battery to restart
the vehicle, and possibly for signaling later
on with your headlights. Let
the heater run for awhile.

Then, shut the engine off and close the window almost all the way to
preserve the heat. Start the engine again and repeat this only when you
feel really uncomfortable from the cold. But
do it as little as possible.
Preserve the fuel as long as you can. To help keep warm, you can get out
