other injuries.

your abdomen. The belt forces
would be there, not at your pelvic
bones. This could cause serious
internal injuries.

with such a condition should use
care when using the seat heater,
especially for long periods of
time. Do not place anything on
the seat that insulates against
heat, such as a blanket, cushion,
cover, or similar item. This
