SEATS AND STEERING COLUMN
SEAT HEATERS
The seat heaters can be operated only
when the vehicle is in Drive mode. The seat
heaters will maintain a pre-determined
temperature according to the level
selected.
WARNING: If you cannot feel
temperature change or pain to the
skin, the seat heater may cause burns. To
reduce the risk of burns, people with such a
condition should use care when using the
seat heater, especially for long periods of
time. Do not place anything on the seat
that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket, cushion, cover, or similar item. This
may cause the seat heater to overheat. An
overheated seat heater may cause a burn
or may damage the seat.
The seats can be heated at three different
heat levels.
• Press once to operate at the highest
heat level. Three indicators will
illuminate.
• Press twice to operate at the medium
heat level. Two indicators will illuminate.
• Press a third time to operate at the
lowest heat level. A single indicator will
illuminate.
• Press a fourth time to turn off the
heaters.
Switching off the vehicle will automatically
turn off the seat heaters.
FRONT SEAT HEATERS
To turn on a front heated seat, touch
the appropriate heated seat icon on
the touchscreen.
REAR SEAT HEATERS
To turn on a rear heated seat press the
appropriate switch on the rear center
console switch pack.
DRIVER’S SEAT MEMORY
WARNING: Before activating the
seat memory, ensure that the area
immediately surrounding the seat is clear
of obstructions and that all occupants are
clear of moving parts.
WARNING: Never adjust the Settings
in the CIU while you are driving your
vehicle, even if you are temporarily
stopped. Wait until you are in a safe
location away from traffic, put the vehicle
in Park, and then access the Settings menu.
PROGRAMMABLE MEMORY
The vehicle can memorize three different
driver seat and steering column positions
through the “Settings” menu options in the
CIU.
When you unlock the vehicle, the seat and
steering column will automatically adjust to
the last used saved memory settings.
Adjust the seat and steering column to the
desired position, and then store the
program in the seat memory using the
touchscreen.
