Fuel-driven heater

General information about the parking

heater

The parking heater heats the engine and pas-

senger compartment and can be started

directly or with the timer.

Two different times can be selected using the

timer. Here, time refers to the time when the car

is heated and ready. The car's electronic sys-

tem calculates when heating should be started

based on the outside temperature.

The heater cannot start if the outside tempera-

ture exceeds 15 °C. At –5 °C or lower the

maximum running time of the parking heater is

50 minutes.

WARNING

The car must be outdoors when the parking

heater is used.

NOTE

When the parking heater is active there may

be smoke from the right-hand wheel hous-

ing, which is perfectly normal.

Refuelling

Warning label on fuel filler flap.

WARNING

Fuel which spills out can be ignited. Switch

off the fuel-driven heater before starting to

refuel.

Check the information display to see that

the parking heater is switched off. When it

is running, the information display shows

Park heat ON.

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.

Battery and fuel

If the battery has insufficient charge or the fuel

level is too low, the parking heater will be

switched off automatically and a message

appears on the information display. Acknowl-

edge the message by pressing the indicator

stalk OK button once, see page 221.

IMPORTANT

Repeated use of the parking heater com-

bined with short journeys may discharge the

battery and impair starting.

The car should be driven for the same time

as the heater is used to ensure that the car's

battery is recharged adequately to replace

the energy consumed by the heater when it

is used on a regular basis.
