What is the difference between hi and lo in seat heating?
2 Answers
hi is the high-level seat heating, and lo is the low-level seat heating. The following are the precautions for heated seats: 1. Seat heating device: It only works when the ignition switch is turned on. 2. To protect the heating components of the seat heating device: Please do not kneel on the seat or apply point loads to the seat surface and backrest. 3. If the vehicle voltage drops: The seat heating device will automatically turn off to ensure sufficient power supply for the engine control system. 4. After parking: Turn off the seat heating or ventilation in time to prevent excessive power consumption during the next startup. 5. After starting the engine: Turn on the seat heating switch, which can effectively save battery energy and extend battery life.
As a veteran driver with over a decade of experience, I'm very familiar with seat heating functions. The HI setting is like stir-frying over high heat—it quickly warms up an icy-cold seat, perfect for those chilly winter mornings when you're rushing to work. Your back will feel toasty in just five minutes. The LO setting is more like simmering over low heat, maintaining a comfortably warm temperature that's just right for long drives or daily commutes, without making your back sweat. My routine is to start with the HI setting for five minutes to thaw out, then switch to LO to maintain the warmth. Remember not to keep the HI setting on for too long—it wastes electricity, can get uncomfortably hot, and isn't great for the heating elements inside the seat. This is especially true for leather seats, as prolonged high heat can cause cracking. Once the temperature drops, the LO setting is the most economical and practical choice—energy-efficient and comfortable.
