CAUTION
!●
Switch off seat heat
ers when not in use.
●
Operate in the high positi
on for quick heating. Once
the seat is warm, set the
heater to low to keep it
warm. Slight variations in
seat temperature may be
felt while using the heated
seats. This is caused by
the operation of the heater’s
internal thermostat and
does not indicate a malfunction.
●
If the following types of p
ersons use the heated seats,
they might become too ho
t or receive minor burns
(red skin, heat blisters, etc.):• Children, elderly or ill people • People with sensitive skin • Excessively tired people • People under the influe
nce of alcohol or sleep
inducing medication (cold medicine, etc.)
●
Do not place heavy objects on the seat or stick pins, needles, or other poin
ted objects into it.
●
Do not use a blanket, cushio
n, or other material with
high heat insulation prop
erties on the seat while
using the heater; this migh
t cause the heater element
to overheat.
●
When cleaning the seat,
do not use benzene, gaso-
line, alcohol, or other organic solvents; this might damage the surface of the
seat and also the heater
element.
●
If water or any other liquid
is spilled on the seat,
allow it to dry thoroughly
before attempting to use
the heater.
●
Turn the heater off immediately if it appears to be malfunctioning during use.CAUTION
