The transmitter and the battery are housed in the housing of the remote control.
The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle.
When the battery is fully charged, the range of the remote control is a few hun-
dred metres. Obstacles between the radio remote control and the vehicle, bad
weather conditions and a weaker battery can clearly reduce the range.
To switch the auxiliary heating on or off, hold the remote control vertical, with the
aerial pointing upwards. The antenna must not be covered with the fingers or the
palm of the hand during this process.
The auxiliary heating can only be switched on/off safely using the radio remote
control, if the distance between the radio remote control and the vehicle is at
lights up least 2 m.
