The heated seat system is available on all the seats except the standard rear seat option.
The heated seat system comprises of:
•
Heated seat switches
•
Backrest heater pad

FEM (front electronic module)
The FEM (front electronic module) controls the seat heating function by providing the
appropriate response depending on the status of the heated seat switches. The heated seat
functionality is constantly monitored by the electronic load management system (ELMS). The
ELMS dictates that in circumstances where the generated electrical power is less than the
electrical consumption, selected systems may be inhibited or operated using reduced power
for as long as is necessary.
With the ignition in the `ON` position, pressing a heated seat switch will select the maximum
heat setting for the chosen seat and is confirmed by three illuminated light emitting diodes
(LED) next to the switch. A second press selects the intermediate heat setting and two LEDs
are illuminated next to the switch. A third press selects the lowest heating setting, which is
displayed by one LED illuminating and a fourth press will deactivate the heated seat.
If the heated seat function has been activated, it will continue to operate until one of the
following conditions is met:
