Structure embedded heating seats is quite simple: a heating component (usually a Nichrome spiral or Teflon coated wire) sewn into a Teflon sheath (teplovolokno and carbon fiber) and is connected to the onboard electrical network of the vehicle. All this construction is placed in the lower part of the seat and backrest.

During start, first heating element reaches a specific temperature (typically 35-40 degrees Celsius), then the device maintains optimum thermal conditions. To protect against overheating, the system includes a temperature sensor.

In addition, some vehicles have the ability to choose the level of heating or disable any part for heating only the back or the bottom of a seat. Integrated display mounted on the vehicle factory or in the workshop after optional vehicle owner in assembly time.

Seat heating button

Typically, the activation of the factory heating button has the function of self-locking. While pressing the button on the relay that is embedded in a block heating power, this power supply delivers contacts. Relay sends current to the filament nakalyvaniya (heating elements) and at the same moment back to the relay coil, thus, the circuit is completed.

If the vehicle ignition is switched off, the circuit is opened and the thread will remain de-energized. During the re-ignition is switched on, the heater will not work until it is activated by a button.
