HEATED SEATS (if so equipped) 3. When the seat is warmed or before you leave the vehicle, be sure to turn the switch off. ● The battery could run down if the seat heater is operated while the engine is not running. CAUTION ● Do not use the seat heater 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. LIC0136 The front and rear seats are warmed by built-in heaters (if so equipped). The switches are located on the center consoles. 1. Start the engine. 2. Push the low or high position of the switch, as desired. The indicator light in the switch will illuminate. The heater is controlled by a thermostat, automatically turning the heater on and off. The indicator light will remain on as long as the switch is on. ● Do not place anything hard or heavy on the seat or pierce it with a pin or similar object. This may result in damage to the heater. ● Any liquid spilled on the heated seat should be removed immediately with a dry cloth. ● When cleaning the seat, never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, or any similar materials. ● If any abnormalities are found or the heated seat does not operate, turn the switch off and have the system checked by your NISSAN dealer.
