HEATED SEATS - Description

Description

The front seats may be optionally fitted with a special heating system (consisting of two heater elements located in the cushion and squab): these heat the seat to ease the discomfort of entering a cold passenger compartment in very cold weather, e.g. when the car is left outside for long periods during winter.

The heating device located in each seat consists of two resistors operated by a switch located on the outside of each seat.

Once a certain temperature is reached, the heating action is automatically cut off by a thermal contact inside the device.

An LED located in the actual switches itself indicates when the resistors are switched on.

The seat heating operates only when the ignition is switched on.

The seat heating circuit is controlled by a special relay and protected by two specific fuses located in the luggage compartment fuse box.

The heating device located in each seat consists of two resistors operated by a switch located on the outside of each seat.

The switch is an integral part of the seat movement controls See E3076 ELECTRICALLY-ADJUSTABLE SEATS.

Once a certain temperature is reached, the heating action is automatically cut off by a thermal contact inside the device.

An LED located in the actual switches indicates when the resistors are switched on.
