3. CAUTIONS FOR POWER SEAT
You can operate the power seat with the ignition switch OFF. However, frequent operation of the
seat switch with the engine stopped can result in battery becoming discharged.
Operating more than one seat adjustment switch at the same time can cause damage to the seat
motor. Therefore, operate the seat switch only one at a time.
Do not use organic solvents such as benzene, thinner, alcohol or gasoline to prevent the seat cove
r
from being damaged while cleaning.
Do not operate the seat position adjustment switch forcefully when the seat does not move or it
contacts an object.
If the power seat is not operated, check and correct the problem before driving off. ▷
