WARNING! (Continued)
•Do not place anything on the seat that insulates
against heat, such as a blanket or cushion. This
may cause the seat heater to overheat. To avoid
heated seat surfaces coming in contact with each
other and potential seat overheating, ALWAYS
ensure that the seat heater is in the Off position
(amber lights indicate High/Low/Off) before plac-
ing any of the seats into a folded flat position (if
equipped).

ing. Press the switch a second time to select
Low-level heating. Press the switch a third time
to shut the heating elements Off. Two indica-

When the High-level setting is selected, the heater will
provide a boosted heat level during the first four minutes
of operation. Then, the heat output will drop to the
normal High-level. If the High-level setting is selected,
the system will automatically switch to Low-level after
approximately 30 minutes of continuous operation. At
that time, the number of illuminated LEDs changes from
two to one, indicating the change. The Low-level setting
will turn Off automatically after approximately 30 min-
utes.
NOTE:Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be felt
within two to five minutes.WARNING!
•Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes,
spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, ex-
haustion or other physical condition must exercise
care when using the seat heater. It 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. This
may cause the seat heater to overheat. To avoid
heated seat surfaces coming in contact with each
other and potential seat overheating, always en-
sure that the seat heater is in the Off position
(amber lights indicate High/Low/Off) before plac-
ing any of the seats into a folded flat position (if
equipped).
