tures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• 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 over-
heat . Sitting in a seat that has been overheated
could cause serious burns due to the increased
surface temperature of the seat .
For Vehicles Equipped With Uconnect® 4.3:
Touch 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
(located 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 se-
lected, the system will automatically switch to LO-level
after approximately 60 minutes of continuous opera-
tion. At that time, the display will change from HI to
LO, indicating the change. The LO-level setting will turn
OFF automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
