WARNING
If, as an occupant, you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity,
e.g. through medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabe-
tes), we recommend you do not use seat heating on the driver or front pas-
senger seat. 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 recommend 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
71
doctor, who can evaluate your specific condition.
