Pre-cleaning

*

Pre-cleaning of the vehicle before driving is
used to improve the air quality in the passen-
ger compartment.

It is only possible to activate pre-cleaning
manually from the center display, but the func-
tion is also started automatically when pre-

The function uses the ventilation system to
blow fresh air into the passenger compart-
ment and then circulates the air through the
climate system's passenger compartment air
filter.

Climate comfort retaining function

The climate in the passenger compartment
can be maintained when the vehicle is
parked, e.g. if the engine is turned off but the
driver or passengers remain in the vehicle.

This function can only be direct-started from
the center display.

The function utilizes several of the vehicle's
systems:

•

Residual heat from the engine is used to
help heat the passenger compartment to a
comfortable temperature.

•

In warm weather, the ventilation system
cools the passenger compartment by
blowing air in from outside.

NOTE

Climate comfort maintenance will be deac-
tivated if the vehicle is locked from the out-
side in order to avoid using residual engine
heat unnecessarily. This function is
intended to be used to maintain climate
comfort when the driver or a passenger
remains in the vehicle after the engine is
turned off.

The climate comfort retaining function is
limited in duration in cold weather depend-
ing on the amount of residual warmth
available.

Heater

The heater has two sub-functions that help
warm the passenger compartment or engine
in various situations.

The heater has two sub-functions:

•

Parking heater - heats the passenger com-
partment as needed when the parking cli-
mate's preconditioning is activated.

•

Auxiliary heater - heats the passenger
compartment and engine while driving.

The heater is a high-voltage coolant heater
and is mounted in the front right-side wheel
housing.

Battery and charging

The heater is powered by the vehicle's hybrid
battery. If the charge level in the hybrid battery
is too low, the heater will switch off automati-
cally and a message will be displayed in the
instrument panel.

NOTE

Make sure that the battery has sufficient
charge if the heater must be used. For the
heater to be used for preconditioning, the
vehicle must be plugged into an electrical
outlet.

Parking heater

The parking heater heats the passenger com-

ditioning is activated.

The parking heater is one of two sub-functions
of the vehicle's heater. The heater is mounted
in the front right-side wheel housing.

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

Heater running time varies depending on fac-
tors such as battery charge level, passenger
compartment temperature and ambient tem-
perature, but it will never run for longer than
30 minutes.

NOTE

Make sure that the hybrid battery has suffi-
cient charge if the parking heater must be
used. For the heater to be used for precon-
ditioning, the vehicle must be plugged into
an electrical outlet.
