Heated/Ventilated Seats - Dodge Durango 2016 User Manual

HEATED/VENTILATED SEATS

Heated Seats
On some models, the front and rear seats may be equipped with heaters in both the seat
cushions and seatbacks.
The front driver and passenger heated seats are operated using the Uconnect System.
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion or other
physical condition must exercise care when using the seat heater. It may cause
burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat or seatback that insulates against heat, such as
a blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat
that has been overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
Front Heated Seats
The front heated seats control buttons are located within the climate or controls screen of
the touchscreen.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat settings. The indicator arrows in touchscreen
buttons indicate the level of heat in use. Two indicator arrows will illuminate for HI, one
for LO and none for OFF.
• Press the heated seat button

If the HI-level setting is selected, the system will automatically switch to LO-level after
approximately 60 minutes of continuous operation. At that time, the display will change
from HI to LO, indicating the change. The LO-level setting will turn OFF automatically
after approximately 45 minutes.
NOTE:
• Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be felt within two to five minutes.
• The engine must be running for the heated seats to operate.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, the heated seats can be programmed to
come on during a remote start.
