HEATED SEATS

WARNING

People who are unable to feel pain
to their skin because of advanced
age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal

cord injury, medication, alcohol use,
exhaustion or other physical conditions,
must exercise care when using the heated
seat. The heated seat may cause burns
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 heated seat to overheat.
Do not puncture the seat with pins, needles
or other pointed objects. This may damage
the heating element which may cause the
heated seat to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury.

Do not do the following:
•

Place heavy objects on the seat.

•

Operate the heated seat if water or any
other liquid spills on the seat. Allow the
seat to dry thoroughly.

•

Operate the heated seats unless the
vehicle is powered to Ready to Drive.
Doing so can deplete the 12-volt
battery.
