Stationary climate control
Concept
Stationary climate control cools or heats the car's
interior prior to departure to a comfortable tem‐
perature.
The system automatically cools, vents, or heats
depending on the internal and external tempera‐
ture. Snow and ice may be removed more easily.
General information
The stationary climate control can be switched
on and off directly or via a preset departure time.

Climate control
Online Edition for Part no. 01405A03663 - II/20
The air automatically exits through the vents to
the windshield, the side windows, the upper
body region and into the floor area.
The system switches off automatically after a
certain period of time.
If stationary climate control is used during the
charging process, less air conditioning capacity
will be required while driving. This optimizes the
range.
Functional requirements
▷ The vehicle is in idle state or standby state
and not in drive-ready state.
▷ The high-voltage battery is sufficiently
charged or the charging cable is connected.
If the high-voltage battery is heavily dis‐
charged, it can take some time after connect‐
ing the charging cable, until the stationary cli‐
mate control will be functional.
▷ Direct operation or departure time prese‐
lected: depends on internal, external, and set
desired temperature.
Make sure that the vehicle's date and time
are set correctly.
▷ To ensure the starting capability of the vehi‐
cle, the stationary climate control may be au‐
tomatically switched off, for instance after re‐
peated switching on or due to an insufficient
state of charge of the high-voltage battery:
switch the drive-ready state on and off and
the system is available again.
▷ Open the vents to allow air to flow out.
Switching on/off directly
Concept
There are different ways to switch the system on
or off.
The system switches off automatically after ap‐
prox. 30 minutes.
