Auxiliary heater* (additional heater)
Introduction
The auxiliary heater is powered by fuel from the vehicle's fuel tank and can be
used while the vehicle is in motion and at a standstill. Select the mode
required (heat or fan) page 189 on the instrument panel.
In winter, the auxiliary heater can be used in heat mode before switching on
the ignition to remove any ice, mist or snow from the windscreen (thin layers
only).
Additional information and warnings:
x SEAT information system page 70
x Refuelling page 293
WARNING
The auxiliary heater fumes contain carbon dioxide, an odourless and
colourless toxic gas. Carbon monoxide can cause people to lose conscious-
ness. It can also cause death.
x Never switch on the auxiliary heater or leave it running in places that
are enclosed or unventilated.
x Never program the independent heating system to be activated and
operated in closed, unventilated areas.
WARNING
The components of the auxiliary heater exhaust system heat up a great
deal. This could cause a fire.
x Always park your vehicle so that no part of the exhaust system can
come in contact with flammable materials (such as dried grass).
Caution
Never place food, medicines or other heat-sensitive objects close to the air
vents. Food, medicines and other heat-sensitive objects may be damaged or
made unsuitable for use by the air coming from the air vents.
