2009 FORD EXPEDITION EL seats

To have full capacity usage of your power point, the engine is required to
be running to avoid unintentional discharge of the battery. To prevent
the battery from being discharged:
• do not use the power point longer than necessary when the engine is
not running,
• do not leave battery chargers, video game adapters, computers and
other devices plugged in overnight or when the vehicle is parked for
extended periods.
Always keep the power point caps closed when not being used.
A second auxiliary power point is
located on the rear side of the
center console. The power point is
accessible from the rear seats.
The rear auxiliary power point is located on the right rear quarter panel.
The power point is accessible from the liftgate or the third row seat.

Memory seat/power mirrors/adjustable pedals (if equipped)
This system allows automatic
positioning of the driver seat,
outside rearview mirrors and
adjustable pedals to two
programmable positions.
The memory seat control is located
on the outboard side of the seat cushion.
• To program position one, move the driver seat, exterior mirrors and
adjustable pedals to the desired positions using the associated
controls. Press and hold control button 1 for at least two seconds.
• To program position two, repeat the previous procedure using control
button 2.
A position can only be recalled when the transmission gearshift is in Park
(automatic transmission). A memory seat position may be programmed
at any time.
The memory seat positions are also recalled when you press your remote
entry transmitter (unlock) control and the transmitter is
programmed to a memory seat position or when you enter a valid
customer code 1 or 2 on the keypad.
To program the memory seat to remote entry transmitter, refer to
Remote entry system in the Locks and Security chapter.
Note: The seat will not travel to its final position if the key is not
in the ignition and the easy entry feature is enabled.
Climate controlled seats (if equipped)
Note: It is recommended for optimal performance that the vehicle air
conditioning system be run in the same mode (either heating or cooling)
as the climate control seat system. During start up of the climate control
seat system, a slight difference in seat surface temperature may be
perceived between the seat cushion and seat back until the cabin and
seat temperatures stabilize. If the vehicle air conditioning system is run
in floor mode, the effect may be more pronounced. Switching between
seat heat and seat cool modes in alternate succession will delay the time
it takes for the seat temperatures (back and cushion) to stabilize.
The controls for the climate controlled seats are located on the dual
electronic automatic temperature control (DEATC) system.

Heated seats
WARNING: Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord
injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other physical
conditions, must exercise care when using the seat heater. The seat
heater may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods of time. Do not place anything on the seat that
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion, because this may
cause the seat heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins,
needles, or other pointed objects because this may damage the heating
element which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury.
Note: Do not do the following:
• Place heavy objects on the seat
• Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.
The heated seats will only function when the engine is running.
To operate the heated seats:
Press once to activate the high heat
setting (three indicator lights).
Continue pressing to scroll through
the other settings; medium heat
(two indicator lights), low heat (one indicator light) or off.
Cooled seats
The cooled seats will only function when the engine is running.
To operate the cooled seats:
Press once to activate the high cool
setting (three indicator lights).
Continue pressing to scroll through
the other settings; medium cool
(two indicator lights), low cool (one indicator light) or off.
If the engine falls below 350 RPMs while the cooled seats are on, the
feature will turn itself off and will need to be reactivated.
