- The climate controlled seat system draws approximately 4.5 amps for the first twelve (12) minutes and will operate at 2 amps thereafter.
- In COOL mode, the TED can remove up to 8°C (14°F) from the ambient air temperature entering the system.
- There are three manual settings based on the position of the climate controlled seat switch on the DATC module. Position one is the LOW setting and position three is the HIGH setting.
- If the temperature atone of the TEDs goes below 18°C (64°F), the climate controlled seat module will shut down the TEDs. If the temperature continues to drop below 12°C (54°F), the climate controlled seat module will shut down the fan motor.
- In COOL mode, there is a correlation between the seat fan motor speed and the TED supply voltage.COOLING CHARACTERISTICS
