Additional adjustments

Head restraint height and angle 
(depending on version)

on and select the desired level of heating:
0

: Off.

Electric passenger seat

Do not use the function if the seat is not 
occupied.
Reduce the level of heating as soon as 
possible.
Once the seat and passenger 
compartment are at a comfortable 
temperature, you can switch off the 
function; reducing electric current 
consumption also reduces fuel 
consumption.

Prolonged use at the highest setting 
is not recommended for those with 
sensitive skin.
There is a risk of burns for those that 
do not have normal perception of heat 
(illness, taking medicines, ...).
There is a risk of overheating the 
system if material with insulating 
properties is used, such as cushions or 
seat covers.
Do not use the system:
-  if wearing damp clothing,
-  if child seats are fitted.
To avoid breaking the heating element 
in the seat:
-  do not place heavy objects on the 

seat,

-  do not kneel or stand on the seat,
-  do not place sharp objects on the 

seat,

-  do not spill liquids onto the seat.
To avoid the risk of short-circuit:
-  do not use liquid products for 

cleaning the seat,

-  never use the heating function 

when the seat is damp.
