WARNING!(Continued)
•Do not place anything on the seat or seatback that
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion.
This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting
in a seat that has been overheated could cause
serious burns due to the increased surface tempera-
ture of the seat.

Press the CLIMATE hard-key (located on the left side of
the Uconnect® display) to enter the climate control
screen.
Touch the “Driver” or “Pass” seat soft-key (lo-
cated on the Uconnect® display) once to select
HI-level heating. Touch the soft-key a second
time to select LO-level heating. Touch the soft-
key a third time to shut the heating elements OFF.
When the HI-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 HI-level. If the HI-level setting is selected, the
system will automatically switch to LO-level after ap-
proximately 60 minutes of continuous operation. At that
time, the display will change from HI to LO, indicating
the change. The LO-level setting will turn OFF automati-
cally after approximately 45 minutes.3
