WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use the
climate controlled seats if you or the occu-
pants cannot monitor seat temperatures or
have an inability to feel pain in those body
parts in contact with the seat. Use of the
climate controlled seats by such people
could result in serious injury.
CAUTION
∙ The battery could run down if the climatecontrol seat is operated while the engine
is not running.
∙ Do not use the climate control seat for extended periods or when no one is using
the seat.
∙ Do not put anything on the seat which insulates heat, such as a blanket, cushion,
seat cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may
become overheated.
∙ Do not place anything hard or heavy on the seat or pierce it with a pin or similar
objects. This may result in damage to the
climate controlled seat.
∙ Any liquid spilled on the seat should be removed immediately with a dry cloth.
∙ When cleaning the seat, never use gaso- line, benzine, thinner, or any similar
materials.
∙ If any malfunctions are found or the cli- mate controlled seat does not operate,
turn the switch off and have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. The climate controlled seat cools down the
front seat by blowing cool air from under the
surface of the seat. The climate control
switch is located on the center console.

as follows:
1. Place the ignition switch in the ON posi- tion.
2. Push the climate controlled seat switches to cool the seat. The indicator
light on the corresponding switch will
illuminate.
3. Adjust the desired amount of air by pushing the switch again. The climate
controlled seat blower remains on low
speed for approximately 60 seconds af-
ter pushing the switch on.
4. When the vehicle’s interior is warmed or cooled, or before you leave the vehicle,
be sure to turn off the climate controlled
seats. To turn off the climate controlled
seats, push the switch until the indicator
light does not illuminate.
