Seat heater (if equipped)

The seat heater operates when the igni-
tion switch is in the "ON" position.
The seat heater can be adjusted in three
levels. Press the button to activate the
seat heater. Each subsequent press of the
button will reduce the level. Pushing the
button four times or keeping the button
pressed for approximately 1 second will
turn the heater off. While the seat heater is
operating, its operating level is shown by
the number of illuminated indicators. To
warm the seat as quickly as possible, set
the heater with three indicators illuminat-
ed.
When the vehicle's interior is warmed
enough or before you leave the vehicle,
be sure to turn the switch off.
There is a possibility that people
with delicate skin may suffer
slight burns even at low tempera-
tures if they use the seat heater
for a long period of time. When us-
ing the heater, always be sure to
warn the persons concerned.
Do not put anything on the seat
which insulates against heat,

such as a blanket, cushion, or
similar items. This may cause the
seat heater to overheat.
NOTE
Use of the seat heater for a long period
of time while the engine is not running
can cause battery discharge.
Rear seats (5-seater models)/
Second-row seats (7-seater
models)
Seatbelts provide maximum re-
straint when the occupant sits
well back and upright in the seat.
Do not put cushions or any other
materials between occupants and
seatbacks or seat cushions. If you
do so, the risk of sliding under the
lap belt and of the lap belt sliding
up over the abdomen will in-
crease, and both can result in se-
rious internal injury or death.
