That message is regarding the main battery in the trunk, not the smaller auxiliary battery under the hood. The electronics are complaining the battery voltage is a bit lower than they like (even though the car starts without difficulty), so they are shutting down your heated seats and limiting the heater blower to low speed while they focus on charging up the battery.

I occasionally get this message if the car has not been driven for a few days and the morning is on the cold side (cold being below freezing). The car always starts fine, and the message clears within 5 minutes.

If the message clears after a few minutes, your charging system is likely fine. Given that you are getting this message on 62 degree days, I suspect it is getting to be time for a new main battery.
