General information about heaters
The parking heater can be started immedi-
ately or set with two different start times us-
ing
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 lower, 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.
