General information about heaters

The parking heater can be started immedi-
ately or set with two different start times
using

TIMER AM

and

TIMER PM

. Here, start

time refers to the time the car is heated and
ready. The car’s electronic system calculates
when heating should be started based on the
outside temperature. The heater is not run if
the outside temperature exceeds 25 C. At
minus 10 C and below, the maximum run-
ning time of the parking heater is 60 minutes.

Parking on a hill
If the car is parked on a steep hill, the front of
the car should point downhill to ensure that
there is a supply of fuel to the parking
heater.
