WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced
age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use,
exhaustion or other physical conditions must exercise care when using
the seat heater. It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially
if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in
a seat that has been overheated could cause serious burns due to the
increased surface temperature of the seat.
