When using the heater, always be sure to warn the persons concerned. Do not put anything on the seat which insulates against heat, such as a blanket, cushion, or similar items. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Rear seats 1 HI LO 100092 100093 HI - Rapid heating LO - Normal heating NOTE Use of the seat heater for a long period of time while the engine is not running can cause battery discharge. Seatbelts provide maximum restraint when the occupant sits well back and upright in the seat. Do not put cushions or any other materials between occupants and seatbacks or seat cushions. If you do so, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and of the lap belt sliding up over the abdomen will increase, and both can result in serious internal injury or death. The seat heater operates when the ignition switch is either in the "ACC" or "ON" position. To turn on the seat heater, push the "LO" or "HI" position on the switch, as desired, depending on the temperature. Selecting the "HI" position will cause the seat to heat up quicker. The indicator located on the switch comes on when the seat heater is in operation. When the vehicle's interior is warmed enough or before you leave the vehicle, be sure to turn the switch off. - CONTINUED -
