temperatures may be affected or they may
even suffer burn-like injuries. There is a risk
of injury.
Therefore, do not switch the seat heating on

vehicle's electrical system voltage is too low
because too many electrical consumers are
switched on.

Switch off electrical consumers that you do
not need, such as the rear window
defroster or interior lighting.
Once the battery is sufficiently charged, the
seat heating will switch back on
automatically. Seats
