Heated seats must not be used by people who find it difficult to perceive an increase in temperature due to a lack of sensation or who otherwise have problems operating the controls for the heated seats.
Activating and deactivating the automatic start of the heated front seat
(Option/accessory.)

- Open the climate view in the center display by tapping on the temperature button at the bottom center of the center display.
- Tap on the desired fan level; OFF, 1–5, or Max.
- The fan level is changed and the selected level illuminates.
Important
If the fan is fully switched off then the air conditioning is not engaged, which results in a risk of misting on the insides of the windows.
A high fan level in the rear seat may cause increased sound volume in the front seat.
Regulating temperature for front seat
(For a 2-zone climate, also a rear seat.)
Tap on the temperature button at the bottom center of the center display to open the control. (If temperature synchronization has been deactivated, the current temperature is shown on both the driver’s side and the passenger’s side.)
Tap on the arrows to the side of the temperature to increase or decrease the temperature. There is also the option to tap directly on the arrows without first tapping on the temperature button when the temperature is synchronized.
The temperature changes and the button shows the set temperature.
Note
Heating or cooling cannot be hastened by selecting a higher or lower temperature than the actual desired temperature.
Synchronizing temperature
Deactivating temperature synchronization
Tap on the temperature button at the bottom center of the center display to open the control.
Tap on the synchronization button between the temperature controls.
The temperature can now be set separately for the various climate zones. The temperature setting is now displayed separately in the climate row on the driver’s side and passenger side instead of just in the middle.
Synchronization of the temperature can also be deactivated by changing the temperature on the passenger side.
Resetting synchronized temperature
Press the driver’s side or passenger side temperature button at the bottom of the center display in order to open the control.
Tap on the synchronization button between the temperature controls.
The temperature for all zones in the car is synchronized with the temperature set for the driver’s side.
Activating and deactivating ventilated front seat
(Option/accessory.)
The seats can be ventilated to provide increased comfort in a hot climate, for example.
The ventilation system consists of fans in the seats and backrests that draw air through the seat upholstery. The cooling effect increases the cooler the passenger compartment air becomes. The system can be activated when the engine is running.
Press the left or right-hand side’s steering wheel and seat button in the climate row in the center display in order to open the controls for the seat and steering wheel.
If the car is not equipped with heated seats or a heated steering wheel (for the driver’s side), the button for ventilated seats is immediately available in the climate row.
Repeatedly press the button for ventilated seats in order to change between the three levels: High, Medium, and Low.
The level changes and the button shows the set level.
