General information about heaters
READ button
Thumbwheel
RESET button
The electrical system must be "awakened"
before the parking heater can be programmed.
This is done by:
•
pressing the READ button or
•
activating main beam or
•
turn the remote control key to key position
I .
The parking heater can be started immediately
or set with two different start times using
TIMER 1 and TIMER 2 . Here, time refers to the
time when the car is heated and ready. The
car's electronic system calculates when heat-
ing should be started based on the outside
temperature.
The heater is not run if the outside temperature
exceeds 25 °C. At -10 °C and below, the maxi-
mum running time of the parking heater is 60
minutes.
If the parking heater does not start, despite
repeated attempts, Volvo recommends that
you contact an authorised Volvo workshop. A
message is shown in the display.
Warning decal on fuel filler flap.
WARNING
The car must be outdoors when the parking
heater is used.
Switch off the parking heater before refuel-
ling. Fuel which spills out could be ignited.
Check in the display that the parking heater
is off. (When the parking heater is running,
PARK HEAT ON is shown in the display.)
Messages in the display
Once the settings for TIMER 1, TIMER 2 and
Direct Start is activated
are activated, the
amber warning symbol in the combined instru-
ment panel illuminates and explanatory text is
shown in the display.
When you leave the car, you will receive a mes-
sage regarding the current settings of the sys-
tem. The message disappears when the car is
locked from the outside using the remote con-
trol key.
Parking on a hill
If you park your car on a steep incline, the front
of the car should be facing down the slope to
ensure the supply of fuel to the parking heater.
