Switching the seat heating on/off
& WARNING Risk of burns due to repeat‐
edly switching on the seat heating
Repeatedly switching on the seat heating can
cause the seat cushion and seat backrest
padding to become very hot.
The health of persons with limited tempera‐
ture sensitivity or a limited ability to react to
high temperatures may be affected or they
may even suffer burn-like injuries.
Do not repeatedly switch on the seat
#
heating.
To protect against overheating, the seat heating
may be temporarily deactivated after it is
switched on repeatedly.
* NOTE Damage to the seats caused by
objects or documents when the seat
heating is switched on
When the seat heating is switched on, over‐
heating may occur due to objects or docu‐
ments placed on the seats, e.g. seat cush‐
ions or child seats. This could cause damage
to the seat surface.
Make sure that no objects or docu‐
#
ments are on the seats when the seat
heating is switched on.
Requirements:
The power supply is switched on.
