ing. Once the seat is warm, set the heater to low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature may be felt while using the heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of the heater’s internal thermostat and does not indicate a malfunction.

heated seats, they might become too hot or receive minor burns (red skin, heat blisters,
etc.):

l Do not place heavy objects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or other pointed objects into it.

rial with high heat insulation properties on the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat.

kerosene, petrol, alcohol, or other organicsolvents; these might damage the surface of the seat and also the heater element.CAUTIONl If water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before at-tempting to use the heater.
