FIAT Freemont - Manual (Page 48)

Touch the “Driver” or “Passenger” seat soft-
key once to select HI-level heating. Touch the
soft-key a second time to select LO-level
heating. Touch the soft-key a third time to
shut the heating elements OFF. (fig. 19)
NOTE: Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be
felt within two to five minutes.
When the HI-level setting is selected, the heater will
provide a boosted heat level during the first four
minutes of operation. Then, the heat output will drop
to the normal HI-level. If the HI-level setting is se-
lected, the system will automatically switch to LO-level
after a maximum of 60 minutes of continuous opera-
tion. At that time, the display will change from HI to
LO, indicating the change. The LO-level setting will turn
OFF automatically after a maximum of 45 minutes.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to
the skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medi-
cation, alcohol use, exhaustion or other physical
condition must exercise care when using the seat
heater. It may cause burns even at low tempera-
tures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insu-
lates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion.
This may cause the seat heater to overheat.
Sitting in a seat that has been overheated could
cause serious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
