The illumination of a lamp may be accompanied
by an audible signal and/or a message displayed
in a screen.
Relating the type of alert to the operating status
of the vehicle allows you to determine whether the situation is normal or whether a fault has
occurred: refer to the description of each lamp for
further information.
When the ignition is switched on
Certain red or orange warning lamps come on for
a few seconds when the ignition is switched on.
These warning lamps should go off as soon as the
engine is started.

not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (e.g. illness,
taking medication).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent a
