Notice to Users
The seat heater is designed to control the temperature of the lower and upper seat
segment of the front seats. Proper temperature control of the vehicle seat increase the
driver‘s comfort and enhances basic health. The seat heater operates in two power
levels and can only be engaged with the ignition turned on. The switch label “HI”
denotes the function best used to power up the seat heater in cold ambient
temperatures.
After the system is running for a while the seat heater should be switched to the “LO”
position for maximum comfort. This keeps the system from generating too much heat
when running continuously. The low position will provide the best comfort for normal
operations.
The seat heater may be turned “OFF” by placing the rocker switch in the center position.
The seat heater is equipped with safety device which senses and prohibits overheat
conditions. If the seat heater is operated for extended times in the “HI” position, it may
be possible for the thermo probe to shut the heater down. In such event it may take a
few minutes until the system will re-engage again without action needed from the
drivers (provided the switch is still in the on position). A 10 Amp fuse protects against
electrical shorts and other malfunctions.
