  • Seat Cooling Fans Data Sheet
    Commercial Vehicles and Services Continental Seat Cooling Fans Data Sheet Whether you live in a warm weather area or a cold weather area, heated and cooled seats are perfect for driver and passenger comfort. This feature has become more common, and can be found in many vehicles, not just those with leather interior options. However, a vehicle’s interior dirt, grime, pet fur, and spills are just a few of the conditions that can affect the seat cooling fan and lead to reduced cooling and ultimately the failure of the seat cooling fan.
