components when it's moving.Comfort Pack Front Seats
This includes:
• heating of the front seats;
• driver seat, steering wheel and
outside rearview mirrors memory
position (see paragraph "Driver
Memory Seat" in this chapter).
Front Heated Seats
The front seats are equipped with
heaters in both seat cushions and
seatbacks.
WARNING!
•Persons with low skin sensitivity
because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury,
medication, alcohol use, exhaustion
or other physical conditions must be
careful when using the seat heater. It
may cause irritation even at low
temperatures, especially if used for
long periods of time.
•Do not place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause
the seat heater to overheat.
NOTE:
Seat heating also works with engine
off and key in ignition switch inACC
orMAR (ON)position. To avoid
discharging the battery, it is
recommended to activate the feature
with engine running.
The heating is activated by turning
control on the outer side of the seat
cushion.
When this function is active for one or
more seats, the relative warning light
will illuminate on the display. Using
this control, heating can be adjusted
to 3 different levels.
NOTE:
•Turn off the heating system when
not required, to prevent unnecessary
power wastage.

This feature allows the driver to store
up to three different memory profiles
for easy recall through the buttons on
the outer side of the seat cushion.
Each memory profile contains desired
position settings for the driver seat,

the passenger’s outside mirror again
to ensure the best possible visibility
for reversing, then disengage R
(Reverse) gear.

“1”, “2” or “3”, each corresponding to
a memorizable position, for more than
3 seconds until you hear a
confirmation tone.

gradually shading as the light hitting
the mirrors increases.
The outside rearview electrochromic
mirrors work in conjunction with the
inside rearview electrochromic mirror.

(right) position to select the mirror
that you want to adjust.Move the mirror control switch
corresponding to the direction of the
mirror desired movement (up - down -

Left-hand Multifunction Lever
The multifunction lever on the left side
of the steering column controls the
operation of the turn signals,
headlight beam selection and
overtaking lights.
This multifunction lever also controls
the Cruise Control. See chapter "Cruise
Control" in section "Driving" for
further information.
Turn Signals
Move the left-hand multifunction lever
all the way up or down until the stop
trigger.
The left or right arrow indicator on
respectively the speedometer and
tachometer instrument cluster, flashes
to show proper operation of the front
and rear turn signal lights.To activate lane change function, tap
the lever up or down once, without
moving beyond the detent. The turn
signals (right or left) will flash three
times then automatically turn off.
This function is useful when
overtaking or changing lanes.NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not
flash, or flashes at a fast rate, check for
a defective outside light bulb. If an
indicator on instrument cluster fails
while moving the lever, then the
indicator bulb is probably defective.
High Beams and Flashing
To switch on the high beams with the
light switch in headlamp
or
“AUTO” position, shift the left-hand
multifunction lever onward.
A related
blue telltale will
illuminate on the tachometer.

high beams and switch on the low
beams.
