If steering wheel heating indicator lamp = is

flashing, the steering wheel heating has

switched off automatically. The vehicle's

electrical system voltage is too low because

too many electrical consumers are switched

on.

X

Switch off electrical consumers that you do

not need, such as the rear window

defroster or interior lighting.

Once the battery is sufficiently charged, the

steering wheel heating will switch back on

automatically.
