The controls f or the adjustable
driver’s power seat are on the
outside edge of the seat bottom. You
can adjust the power seat with the
ignition switch in any position. Make
all seat adjustments bef ore you start
driving.
Moving the long horizontal switch
adjusts the seat bottom in several
directions. The seat bottom adjusts
in the direction you move the switch.
The short vertical switch adjusts the
seat back angle.
Both f ront seats are equipped with
seat heaters. The driver’s seat has
heaters in both the seat-back and
seat cushion, but because of the
sensors f or the side airbag system,
there is no heater in the passenger’s
seat-back. The ignition switch must
be in the ON (II) position to use the
heaters.
If the engine is lef t idling f or an
extended period, do not use the
seat heaters even on the LO
setting. It can weaken the battery,
causing hard starting. Use the HI setting only to heat the
seats quickly, because it draws
large amounts of current f rom the
battery.
Follow these precautions whenever
you use the seat heaters: In the LO setting, the heater runs
continuously. It does not cycle with
temperature changes. In the HI setting, the heater turns off
when the seat gets warm, and turns
back on after the seat’s temperature
drops. After the seat reaches a comfortable
temperature, select LO by pushing
the back of the switch. This will keep
the seat warm.
