General
The electrical system must be "awakened"
before the parking heater can be pro-
grammed.
This is most easily done by:
• pressing the READ button or
• activating main beam or
• turning on the ignition.
The parking heater can be started immedi-
ately or set with two different start times us-
ing
TIMER 1 and TIMER 2. Start time refers
to the time the car should be heated and
ready.
The car’s electronic system calculates when
heating should be started based on the out-
side temperature. If the outside temperature
exceeds 25 °C, the heater does not switch
on. At temperatures of –10 °C and below, the
maximum running time of the parking heater
is 60 minutes.
If the parking heater does not start despite
repeated attempts, a message is shown in
the display. Contact an authorised Volvo
workshop.
Messages in the display
Once the settings for TIMER 1, TIMER 2 and
Direct Start are activated, the amber warn-
ing symbol in the combined instrument panel
illuminates and explanatory text is shown in
the display.
When you leave the car, you will receive a
message regarding the current settings of
the system.

Parking on a hill
If you park your car on a steep incline, the
front of the car should be facing up the slope
to ensure the supply of fuel to the parking
heater.
Car clock/timer
For safety reasons, all timer settings will be
cleared if the car clock is reset after timer
settings have been made.
WARNING
The car must be outdoors when the parking
heater is used.
Switch off the parking heater before refuel-
ling. Spilled fuel could be ignited.
Check in the information display that the
parking heater is off. (When the additional
heater is running,
PARK HEAT ON is
shown in the display.)
