Switching on›Press the corresponding symbol button or » Fig. 56 .
Pressing once switches the seat heating on at its maximum level - Level 2.
With repeated pressing of the switch, the intensity of the heating is reduced
until it is switched off.
The level of the seat heating is indicated by the number of illuminated warning
lights in the switch.WARNINGIf, as an occupant, you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity,
e.g. through medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabe-
tes), we recommend you do not use seat heating on the driver or front pas-
senger seat. This can lead to burns on the back, the posterior and the legs
which are difficult to heal. If the seat heating is used, we recommend to
make regular breaks in your journey when driving long distances, so that
the body can recuperate from the stress of the journey. Please consult your
doctor, who can evaluate your specific condition.
CAUTION
■ Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.■The seat heating in the following cases will not turn on - there is a risk of
damaging the seat covers and seat heating. ■The seats are not occupied by people.
■ Items are fastened or stored items on the seats, such as a child seat, a bag
and the like.
■ Additional seat covers or protective covers are fixed to the seats.■
Clean the seat covers » page 138.
Note
■
If the seat heaters are set to their highest intensity - level 2, they are auto-
matically switched down to level 1 after 15 minutes.■
If the on-board voltage drops, the seat heater switches off automatically, in
order to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control » page 151,
