Seating - Heated: Overview




Seating - Heated

Overview

This system allows independent seat electrical heating of each front seat on demand.

The components of the system are:
- seat heater mats (located on the seat cushion and backrest).
- the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) module.
- heated seat buttons (located on the touchscreen interface).

Remote Start Climate Operation (if equipped)

The customer can select different climate control modes/preferences when the vehicle is started using the remote start feature. This can be accessed through the message center. For additional information on how to set the remote start preferences, refer to the Owner's Literature. When the driver seat and/or passenger seat is set to AUTO mode, the driver/passenger heated/climate controlled seat activates in full heat mode when the outside temperature is less than 0 C (32 F) and full cool mode (climate controlled seats only) when outside temperature is greater than 26.7 C (80 F) any time the vehicle is started using the remote start feature. No heated/climate controlled seat adjustments are recognized during remote start operation. Once the ignition is cycled to the ON position, the heated/climate controlled seat returns to the previous settings (last ignition ON cycle) and adjustments can be made normally. If the previous setting was off, the heated/climate controlled seat turns off.
