Parking climate

Parking climate control is a generic term for
various functions that improve the passenger
compartment climate when the car is parked,
e.g. preconditioning.

Functions belonging to the parking
climate control are controlled from
the

Parking climate

in climate view

in the centre display. Open climate

view by pressing the symbol in the middle of
the climate row.

Preconditioning

Preconditioning is a climate function which, if
possible, attempts to reach comfort tempera-
ture in the passenger compartment before
departure.

Preconditioning can use direct start or be set
via the timer.

The function utilises several systems in differ-
ent cases:

•

In a cold climate, the parking heater
warms up the passenger compartment to
a comfortable temperature.

•

The air conditioning, in a hot climate, cools
the passenger compartment to the com-
fort temperature.

•

Activation of heated steering wheel

*

and

heated seats

*

for driver and passenger can

be selected.

•

Heated windscreen, rear window and door
mirrors are automatically activated as
required.

During preconditioning in a hot climate, con-
densation from the air conditioning may drip
under the car. This is normal.

NOTE

Preconditioning is available only when the
car is connected to an electrical socket

. A

charging station which is not always
active, e.g. on account of a timer, may
cause preconditioning to malfunction.

If the car is not connected to an electrical
socket, it is still possible to cool the pas-
senger compartment briefly in a warm cli-
mate by starting preconditioning directly.

NOTE

During preconditioning of the passenger
compartment, the car works to reach com-
fort temperature and not the temperature
set in the climate control system.

Climate comfort when parking

The climate in the car's passenger compart-
ment can be maintained while the car is
parked, e.g. if the engine needs to be
switched off but the driver or passenger(s)
wants to remain in the car and maintain the
level of climate comfort.

Starting climate comfort retention is only pos-
sible via direct start.

The function utilises several systems in differ-
ent cases:

•

Residual heat from the engine, in a cold
climate, heats the passenger compart-
ment to comfort temperature.

•

When it is warm, the ventilation cools the
passenger compartment by blowing in air
from outside the car.

NOTE

Climate comfort retention is switched off
when the car is locked from the outside to
avoid using residual heat unnecessarily.
Use of the function is intended to maintain
climate comfort when driver or passengers
remain inside the car.

Heater

The heater has two subfunctions that help to
heat the passenger compartment or engine in
different situations.

The heater has two subfunctions:

•

Parking heater - heats the passenger com-
partment, if necessary, when the parking
climate control's preconditioning is acti-
vated.

•

Additional heater - heats the passenger
compartment and engine, if necessary,
during driving.

Either a fuel-driven heater or an electric heater
is used, depending on the market

12

.

The heater is fitted in the front right-hand
wheel housing.

NOTE

When the heater is running

13

, smoke may

be emitted from the right-hand front wheel
housing and a low hum may be heard. A
ticking sound from the fuel pump may also
be heard from the rear section of the car.
This is perfectly normal.

Battery and charging

The heater is powered by the car's hybrid bat-
tery. If the charge level of the hybrid battery is
too low, then the heater is switched off auto-
matically and the driver display shows a mes-
sage.

NOTE

Make sure that there is enough charge in
the battery if the heater needs to be used.

Fuel and refuelling

14

Warning label on fuel filler flap.

The heater uses fuel from the car's normal fuel
tank.

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 heater.

If the level in the fuel tank is too low then the
heater is switched off automatically and the
driver display shows a message.

NOTE

Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's
fuel tank if the heater needs to be used.

WARNING

Fuel which spills out could be ignited.

Switch off the fuel-driven heater before

starting to refuel.

Check in the driver display that

the heater is switched off. This

symbol is lit when it is working as

a parking heater.

Parking heater

The parking heater heats the passenger com-
partment as necessary before driving if the
car's preconditioning is activated.

The parking heater is one of two subfunctions
of the car's heater. The heater is fitted in the
front right-hand wheel housing.

When this symbol illuminates in the
driver display, the parking heater

16

, smoke may

This is perfectly normal.

The parking heater starts automatically if the
parking climate's preconditioning is activated
and the passenger compartment needs to be
heated up.

Depending on factors such as battery level,
passenger compartment temperature and
ambient temperature, the heater has different
running times, but never longer than 40
minutes.

NOTE

Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's
fuel tank if the parking heater needs to be
used

17

.

Make sure that there is enough charge in
the hybrid battery if the parking heater
needs to be used.
