CLIMATE
Preconditioning*
Preconditioning is a climate function which, if
possible, attempts to reach comfort tempera-
ture in the passenger compartment before
departure.
Preconditioning can use direct start or be set
via the timer.
The function utilises several systems in differ-
ent cases:
In a cold climate, the parking heater*
•
warms up the passenger compartment to
a comfortable temperature.
When it is warm, the climate control venti-
•
lates the passenger compartment by
blowing in air from outside the car.
NOTE
During preconditioning of the passenger
compartment, the car works to reach com-
fort temperature and not the temperature
set in the climate control system.
