Problems with the seat heating

Problem

Possible causes/consequences and M Solutions

The seat heating has
switched off prema-
turely or cannot be
switched on.

The on-board voltage is too low because too many electrical con-
sumers are switched on.

X

Switch off electrical consumers that you do not need, such as
the rear window heating or interior lighting.
Once the battery is sufficiently charged, the seat heating will
switch back on automatically.
