Seat Heaters and Ventilated
Seats
Front seat heaters

the seats during cold weather.
OOSEV038029
The seat warmers can cause a
SERIOUS BURN, even at low
temperatures and especially if
used for long periods of time.
Passengers must be able to feel
if the seat is becoming too warm
so they can turn it off, if needed.
People who cannot detect tem-
perature change or pain to the
skin should use extreme cau-
tion, especially the following
types of passengers:
Infants, children, elderly or
disabled persons, or hospital
outpatients.
People with sensitive skin or
who burn easily.
Fatigued individuals.
Intoxicated individuals.
People taking medication that
can cause drowsiness or
sleepiness.

To prevent damage to the seat
heaters and seats:
Never use a solvent such as
paint thinner, benzene, alcohol
or gasoline to clean the seats.
Do not place heavy or sharp
objects on seats equipped with
seat heaters.
Do not change the seat cover. It
may damage the seat heater.[A] : Type A, [B] : Type B
While the vehicle is in the ready
( ) mode, push either of the
switches to warm the driver's seat or
front passenger's seat.
During mild weather or under condi-
tions where the operation of the seat
heater is not needed, keep the switch-
es in the OFF position. Each time you push the switch, the
temperature setting of the seat is
changed as follows :
When pressing the switch for more
than 1.5 seconds with the seat
warmer operating, the seat warmer
will turn OFF.
The seat heater defaults to the OFF
position whenever the POWER but-
ton is in the ON position.
Information
With the seat heater switch in the ON
position, the heating system in the seat
turns off or on automatically depend-
ing on the seat temperature.
i
NOTICE
NEVER place anything on the
seat that insulates against heat
when the seat heater is in opera-
tion, such as a blanket or seat
cushion. This may cause the
seat warmer to overheat, caus-
ing a burn or damage to the seat.

When there are only 2 bars remain-
ing on the gauge, the SOC level is
low. The warning lamp turns ON to
alert you that the battery must be
charged soon.
When the warning lamp turns ON,
the vehicle can drive an additional
12~18 miles (20~30 km) depending
on the driving speed, heater/air con-
ditioner, weather, driving style, and
other factors. Charging is required.
When there are 1-2 gauge bars left
for the high voltage battery, the
vehicle speed is limited and then
eventually the vehicle will turn OFF.
Charge the vehicle immediately.

The outside temperature is shown in
the lower portion of the cluster LCD
display. The units may be displayed
in Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C).
- Temperature range :-40°F ~ 140°F
(-40°C ~ 60°C)
Note that the temperature indicated
on the LCD display may not change
as quickly as the outside tempera-
ture (there may be a slight delay
before the temperature changes.) You can change the temperature unit

buttons other than the AUTO button.
In this case, the system works
sequentially according to the order of
buttons selected.
When pressing any button except the
AUTO button while using automatic
operation, the functions not selected
will be controlled automatically.
1. Start the vehicle.
2. Set the mode to the desired posi-
tion.
To improve the effectiveness of
heating and cooling, select the
mode according to the following:
- Heating:
- Cooling:
3. Set the temperature control to the
desired position.
4. Set the air intake control to Fresh
mode.
5. Set the fan speed control to the
desired speed.6. If air conditioning is desired, turn
the air conditioning system on.
7. Press the AUTO button to convert to

Air intake control
The air intake control button is used
to select either Fresh mode (outside
air) or Recirculation mode (cabin air).
Recirculation mode
When Recirculation
mode is selected, air
from the passenger
compartment will be
recirculated through the
system and heated or
cooled according to the
function selected.
Fresh mode
When Fresh mode is
selected, air enters the
vehicle from outside and
is heated or cooled
according to the function
selected.
Information
Operating the system primarily in
Fresh mode is recommended. Use
Recirculation mode temporarily only
when needed.
Prolonged operation of the heater in
Recirculation mode and without the
A/C ON can cause fogging of the wind-
shield.
In addition, prolonged use of the A/C
ON in Recirculation mode may result in
excessively dry, dehumidified air in the
cabin and may promote formation of
musty vent odor due to stagnant air.
i
OOSEV048315
•Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
Recirculation mode for a pro-
longed period of time may
cause drowsiness to the
occupants in the cabin. This
may lead to loss of vehicle
control which may lead to an
accident.
Continued use of the climate
control system operation in
Recirculation mode with the
A/C OFF may allow humidity
to increase inside the cabin.
This may cause condensation
to accumulate on the wind-
shield and obscure visibility.
Do not sleep in your vehicle or
remain parked in your vehicle
with the windows up and
either the heater or the air
conditioning ON for pro-
longed periods of time. Doing
so may increase the levels of
carbon dioxide in the cabin
which may lead to serious
injury or death.
