Ventilated Front Seats - Skoda Superb Owner's Manual

WARNING
If you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g. through medi-
cation, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we recommend
not to use the seat heating. This can lead to burns on the back, the posterior
and the legs which are difficult to heal. If the seat heating is used, we recom-
mend to make regular breaks in your journey when driving long distances, so
that the body can recuperate from the stress of the journey. Please consult
your doctor, who can evaluate your specific condition.
CAUTION
Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.
■
Do not use the seat heaters if the seats are not occupied by persons or if ob-
■
jects, such as a child seat, bag, etc., are fastened or stored on them. A fault of the
heating elements in the seat heating can occur.
Do not clean the seats using moisture
■
Note
If the on-board voltage drops, the seat heating is switched off automatically, in
■
order to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control
If the heaters for the rear seats are set to the highest intensity - level 3, they
■
are automatically switched over to level 2 after 10 minutes (two indicator lights
are illuminated on the switch).

WARNING
If you or a passenger have limited pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g.
caused by medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes),
we recommend that you consult your physician before using the ventilated
front seat.
CAUTION
 Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.
■
The fan is located underneath the front seat cushion. Do not place any objects
■
in this area - it may damage the fan.
Do not clean the seats using moisture
■
Note
The ventilation should only be switched on when the engine is running. This
■
has a significant effect of saving on the battery capacity.
We do not recommend using the front seat ventilation and heating at the same
■
time. Using the ventilation to cool the seat surface considerably reduces the
heating capacity, at the same time affecting the ability of the control unit to de-
tect the right seat surface temperature.
