Abstract

The proposed electronic device (4) for controlling heating in a vehicle seat (heating element 1) is connected via a first control input (9) with an airbag control device (6) and via a second control input to a temperature regulator (2). The heating element (1) in addition to its heating function acts as a sensor to detect seat occupancy.
