is not possible, poisonous exhaust gases such
as carbon monoxide may enter the vehicle.
This is the case in enclosed spaces or if the
vehicle gets stuck in snow, for example.
Always switch the stationary heater off in

Keep the tailpipe and the area around the
#
vehicle free from snow when the engine
or the stationary heater is running.
Open a window on the side of the vehicle
#
facing away from the wind to ensure an
adequate supply of fresh air.
& WARNING Risk of fire due to hot stationary
heater components and exhaust gases
Flammable materials such as leaves, grass or
