People who have reduced sensitivity to pain or heat must never use the seat heating.

NOTICE

To avoid damaging the heating elements, do not kneel on the seat or apply sharp pressure at a single point on the seat cushion and backrest.

Liquids, sharp objects and insulating materials on the seat could damage the seat heating system.

If the system starts to emit a smell, switch the seat heating off immediately and have it checked by a qualified workshop.
