Q&As

What happens if the vehicle is in remote start, heated seats are on and then the ignition is turned on?

If Automatic Heated/Ventilated/Cooled Seats are available for the vehicle, the seat transitions from its remote-start level to the ignition-on seat level. Since conditions for both features vary, a different seat level might be applied. If Automatic Heated/Ventilated/Cooled Seats are not available when the ignition is on, the seats will turn off.

What happens if the vehicle is not in remote start and the ignition is turned on?

If Automatic Heated/Ventilated/Cooled Seats are available for the vehicle and enabled, the seats will be triggered based on the automatic heated and cooled seats’ ignition-on seat level.

If the passenger seat is empty, will it still heat or ventilate?

If Automatic Heated/Ventilated/Cooled Seats are available for the vehicle and enabled, no.
