Operation
Al
ways keep the remote control, keyrings
with batteries, the spare batteries, button
batteries and all other batteries over 20
mm out of reach of children.
If you suspect that someone may have
swallowed a battery, seek immediate med-
ical attention.
CAUTION
The r
adio frequency remote control con-
tains electronic components. Therefore,
avoid getting it wet and exposing it to
knocks or direct sunlight.
The use of inappropriate batteries may
damage the radio frequency remote con-
trol. For this reason, always replace the
used battery with another of the same volt-
age, size and specifications.
For the sake of the environment
Pl
ease dispose of your used batteries
correctly and with respect for the environ-
ment.
The remote control battery may contain
perchlorate. Observe the legal provisions
regarding disposal.
Care should be taken so as not to oper-
ate the remote control unintentionally so
as to prevent the auxiliary heater being
switched on accidentally.
Programming the auxiliary heater
The activation of the parking ventilation for a
schedul
ed time is only valid for a single venti-
lation process. The departure time must be
for each newly programmed ventilation proc-
ess.
Before programming the departure time, you
must check that the date and time of the car
are correctly set.
When programming a departure time, the car
automatically calculates, depending on the
environmental conditions, the necessary op-
erating time of the parking ventilation.
WARNING
Never programme the auxiliary heater so
that it s
witches itself on and is running in an
enclosed space or an area with no ventila-
tion. The auxiliary heater exhaust fumes
contain carbon monoxide, an odourless
and colourless toxic gas. Carbon monoxide
can cause people to lose consciousness. It
can also cause death.
Usage instructions
The auxiliary heater exhaust system located
bel
ow the vehicle must be kept clear of snow,
mud and other objects. The exhaust fumes
must be able to exit freely. The emissions
generated by the auxiliary heater are re-
moved via an exhaust pipe fitted underneath
the vehicle.
On heating the vehicle interior, depending on
the outside temperature, the warm air is first
directed at the windscreen and then to the
rest of the vehicle interior through the air
vents. Directing the diffusers – towards the
windows for example – can affect air distribu-
tion.
When the auxiliary heater is not switched
on
The auxiliary heater requires about as
much power as the dipped beam headlights.
If the 12-volt battery charge is too low, the
auxiliary heater switches off automatically
and cannot be switched on. This avoids prob-
lems when starting the engine.
The heating must be activated every time
you want to set off. Similarly, the departure
time must reactivate each time.
The control lamp (fuel level indicator)
lights up.
Note
Noises will be hear
d while the auxiliary
heater is running.
When the air humidity is high and the in-
side temperature low, condensation from
the heating and ventilating system may
evaporate when the auxiliary heater is
switched on. In this case, steam may be
