WA R N I N G
!
Persons who are unable to feel temperature change
or skin pain due to age, illness, injury, medication,
alcohol use, fatigue or other physical conditions or
who have sensitive skin may suffer burns when
using the heated seat even at low temperatures. To
reduce the risk of burns, people with such conditions
must use care when using the heated seat.
CAUTION
!
Switch off the seat heaters when not in use. Operate
the heaters at high for quick heating. After the seat
has become warm, set the heater to low to keep it
warm. Slight variations in the 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.
Do not place heavy objects on the seat or stick pins,
needles, or other pointed objects into the seat.
Do not place a blanket, cushion, or other insulating
material on the seat while using the heater; doing so
can cause the heater element to overheat.
When cleaning the seat, do not use benzine, kero-
sene, gasoline, alcohol, or other organic solvents;
doing so can cause damage not only to the surface of
the seat, but also to the heater.
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.
