most recently adjusted to. This is accomplished if the
seat is moved fully rearward to its last fore/aft position
on the tracks before the seat back is returned upright.

Memory Function Option 2 (Seat Back Only Memory) —
After using the EZ entry function, the seat back may first
be returned upright prior to going back to the last fore/aft
(memory) position on the tracks. This results in the seat
back memory being set only – The track will then be
locked forward of its last set fore/aft memory position. To
then reset the fore/aft track memory feature (to reestab-
lish Memory Function Option 1), the seat has to be
returned fully rearward to its last fore/aft memory track
position as described in Memory Function Option 1.

WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes,
spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion or other physical condition must exercise care
when using the seat heater. It may cause burns even
at low temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
• 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 temperature of the
seat.
