If the car clock is reset after the heater timers

Additional heater (diesel)

(certain countries)

Extra heat from the additional heater may be
required in cold weather to reach the correct
temperature in the passenger compartment.

The additional heater starts automatically
when extra heat is required if the engine is
running. It is switched off automatically when
the correct temperature is reached or when
the engine is switched off.

NOTE

The car can be started and driven while the
parking heater is still running.

IMPORTANT

Repeated use of the parking heater com-
bined with short journeys may discharge
the battery and impair starting. If the heater
is used regularly, the car must be driven for
the same time as the heater is run to ensure
that the alternator has time to charge the
battery.
