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.

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.
