Preconditioning*
Preconditioning is a climate function that, if
possible, attempts to achieve a comfortable
temperature in the passenger compartment
before driving.
Preconditioning can be started immediately or
tab
started at a preset time using a timer.
In warm weather, the climate system venti-
lates the passenger compartment by blowing
air in from outside. The function cannot heat
the passenger compartment.
NOTE
During preconditioning of the passenger
compartment, the vehicle works to reach a
comfortable temperature and not the tem-
perature set in the climate system.
NOTE
Pre-cleaning* starts automatically when
preconditioning is complete.
