2. Rotate the thumbwheel from "0" to "1" (the
lowest heat level). Allow five minutes for the
heat level to stabilize.
3. If the heat level is not high enough for
comfort, select increased heat levels "2"
through "5" (the maximum level). Allow at
least two minutes for the heat level to stabilize
at any new level selected.
4. If the heated seat switch is not turned off ("0"
on the thumbwheel), the seat will heat up to
the selected temperature level each time the
car is started.
NOTE: Cooling the seat down takes considerably
longer than increasing its heat level.
Important Safety Belt Information
The use of safety belts helps to restrain you and
your passengers in case of a collision. In most states
and in Canada the law requires their use.

Safety belts provide best restraint when:
the seatback is upright
the occupant is sitting upright (not slouched)
the lap belt is snug and low on the hips
the shoulder belt is snug against the chest
the knees are straight forward
To help you remember to fasten your safety belt, a
warning light may come on and a chime may
sound. See Safety Belt Warning Light and Chime in
the Instrumentation chapter.
See the following sections in this chapter for
directions on how to properly use these safety belts.
Also see Safety Restraints for Children in this
chapter for special instructions about using safety
belts for children.
