Seat damage
When cleaning the seats, do
not use an organic solvent
such as paint thinner, ben-
zene, alcohol and gasoline.
Doing so may damage the
surface of the heater or seats.
To prevent overheating the seat warmer, do not place any-
thing on the seats that insu-
lates against heat, such as
blankets, cushions or seat
covers on the seats while the
seat warmer is in operation.
Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the seat. Those
things may damage the seat
warmer system.

Air ventilation seat (if equipped)
The air ventilation is provided to cool
the seats during hot weather by
blowing air through small vent holes
on the surface of the seats and seat-
backs. While the engine is running,
press the switch to cool the seat. When the operation of the air ventila-
tion is not needed, keep the switches
in the OFF position.
Each time you press the switch,
the airflow will change as follows:
When pressing the switch for more than 1.5 seconds with the seat
cooler operating, the seat cooler
will turn OFF.
When the air ventilation seat is turned on, the seat may get cooler
after about 5 minutes.
Because the air ventilation uses the air in the vehicle, cooling effi-
ciency depends on the tempera-
ture of the air. In order to improve
cooling efficiency, use the air con-
ditioning system together.
The air ventilation seat defaults to the OFF position whenever the
Engine Start/Stop Button is turned
to the ON position.
Seat warmer burns
The seat warmer may cause
burns, even at low tempera-
tures, if used over a long period
of time. Never allow passen-
gers who may not be able to
take care of themselves to be
exposed to the risk of seat
heater burns. These include:
1.Infants, children, elderly ordisabled persons, or hospital
outpatients
2.Persons with sensitive skin or those that burn easily
3.Fatigued individuals
4.Intoxicated individuals
5.Individuals taking medication that can cause drowsiness or
