Dodge 2009 Ram 1500 - Manual (Page 142)

Ventilated Seats — If Equipped
Located in the seat cushion and seatback are small fans
that draw the air from around the occupant and exhaust
it underneath the seat and into the passenger compart-
ment. The fans draw this air across the surface of the seat
using air ducts and fine perforations in the covering to
help keep the driver cooler in higher ambient tempera-
tures.
The ventilated seat switches are located in the switch
bank in the center stack of the instrument panel, just
below the climate controls. The fans operate at two
speeds, High and Low.
Press the switch once to choose High,
press it a second time to choose Low.
Pressing the switch a third time will
turn the ventilated seat Off. When
High speed is selected both lights on
the switch will be illuminated. When Low speed is
selected one light will be illuminated.
NOTE:
• The engine must be running for the ventilated seats to
operate.
• The drivers ventilated seat can be programmed to
come on during a remote start. Refer to “Remote
Starting System — If Equipped” in Section 2 for
further information.
