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.
Manual Front Seat Adjustment
On models equipped with manual seats, the adjusting
bar is located at the front of the seats, near the floor.
While sitting in the seat, lift up on the bar and move the
seat forward or rearward. Release the bar once you have
reached the desired position. Then, using body pressure,
move forward and rearward on the seat to be sure that
the seat adjusters have latched.

cally maintains the climate in the cabin of the vehicle at
the comfort levels desired by the driver and passenger.
Automatic Operation
Operation of the system is quite simple.
1. Turn the Mode Control knob (right knob) and theBlower Control knob (left knob) to AUTO.
NOTE: The AUTO position performs best for front seat
occupants only.
2. Dial in the temperature you wouldlike the system to maintain by ro-
tating the Temperature Control
knob (center knob). Once the com-
fort level is selected, the system will
maintain that level automatically
using the heating system. Should
the desired comfort level require air
conditioning, the system will auto-
matically make the adjustment.
