General information about
heaters
The parking heater can be started immedi-
ately or set with two different start times
using TIMER 1 and TIMER 2. Here, start time
refers to the time the car is heated and ready.
The car's electronic system calculates when
heating should be started based on the
outside temperature. The heater is not run if
the outdoor temperature exceeds 25 °C. At
temperatures of –10 °C and below, the
maximum running time of the parking heater
is 60 minutes.

the exhaust gases.

the heater is off. (When the parking heater
is running, PARK HEAT ON is shown on
the information display.)
