Subaru Forester: Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags / Seat heater (if equipped)
The seat heater is equipped in the front
seats or rear seats (window side seating
position).
The seat heater operates when the ignition
switch is either in the “ACC” or “ON”
position.
Safety precautions
CAUTION
- People with delicate skin may
suffer slight burns even at low
temperatures if they use the seat
heater for a long period of time.
When using the heater, always be
sure to warn the persons concerned.
- Do not put anything on the seat
which insulates against heat,
such as a blanket, cushion, or
similar items. This may cause the
seat heater to overheat.
- When the seat is warmed enough
or before you leave the vehicle,
be sure to turn off the seat heater.
NOTE
Use of the seat heater for a long period
of time while the engine is not running
can cause battery discharge.

Other information:
Should the 12V battery in your Kia Telluride become depleted or lose its charge, allow the engine to run continuously for at least 60 minutes, either by taking the vehicle for a drive or letting it idle safely in an open area. Alternatively, you can restore power by hooking up a fully automatic regulated smart charger directly to the dedicated jump-start posts located under the hood or connecting it straight to the 12V battery terminals...
The Auto Vehicle Hold function will automatically
keep the vehicle stopped even
after releasing the brake pedal when the
vehicle is at a complete stop, such as at
traffic signals.
WARNING
Do not use the Auto Vehicle Hold
function on a steep hill or slippery
road...
