Rear seat warmer (if equipped)

The seat warmer is provided to warm
the rear seats during cold weather.
With the ignition switch in the ON
position, push either of the switches
to warm rear seats.
During mild weather or under condi-
tions where the operation of the seat
warmer is not needed, keep the
switches in the "OFF" position.
The seat warmer defaults to the OFF
position whenever the ignition switch
is turned on.

NOTICE

With the seat warmer switch in ON
position, the heating system in the
seat turns off or on automatically
depending on the seat temperature.

CAUTION

• When cleaning the seats, do

not use an organic solvent
such as thinner, benzene, alco-
hol and gasoline. Doing so may
damage the surface of the
heater or seats.

• To prevent overheating the seat

warmer, do not place anything
on the seats that insulates
against heat, such as blankets,
cushions or seat covers while
the seat warmer is in operation.

• Do not place heavy or sharp

objects on seats equipped
with seat warmers. Damage to
the seat warming components
could occur.

• Be careful not to spill liquid

such as water or beverages on
the seat. If you spill some liquid,
wipe the seat with a dry towel.
Before using the seat warmer,
dry the seat completely.
