•
Spill liquid on the front seats. This may
cause the air vent holes to become
blocked and not work properly.

They may block the air intake causing
the air vents to not work properly.
The engine must be running to use this
feature. Press this symbol to cycle through the
various ventilation settings and off. More
indicator lights indicate higher fan speeds.
Note:
The ventilated seats switch on during
a remote start if they are enabled. Note:
The ventilated seats may switch on
when you start your vehicle if they were on
when you previously switched your vehicle
off.
If the engine falls below 350 RPM when the
ventilated seats are on, the system turns off.
You need to switch it back on.
Note: To improve comfort, use the ventilated
seats along with the vehicle ’s air
conditioning system.
Automatic Climate Controlled Seats (If
Equipped)

setting.
