Tesla seat heat control

Not sure I understand the seat positions/heat value. See attached images from indigo. I am wanting to turn on drivers heat to level one with one action and then with a second action turn on both driver and front passenger heat to level one. It seems that first you must turn on HVAC before the seat will heat. But I cannot figure out the seating configuration.

Hi.

Sorry, that's a labelling bug - I copied and pasted the same code from the code to open the panoramic roof and forgot to change the label. The heat values are still correct, 0-3, just labelled wrong.

There is supposed to be a description showing which doors are which, but for some reason it doesn't seem to be showing for me (and presumably you).

0: Driver
1: Passenger
2: Rear Left
4: Rear Centre
5: Rear Right

The Tesla API only accepts on seat at a time, so you'd need two actions (within one action group) - that first turn on the drivers seat, then turn on the passenger seat.

I'm not familiar with whether you need to turn on HVAC or not; the API just has the command to set the seats - I'd have presumed Tesla was clever enough to turn on HVAC if you send a seat heat command.
