CLIMATE CONTROL
* Option/accessory. 214
Parking heater
*
The parking heater helps the passenger com-
partment reach the correct temperature before
driving.
The parking heater is one of two subfunctions of
the car's heater. The heater is fitted in the front
right-hand wheel housing.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be
emitted from the right-hand front wheel hous-
ing and a low hum may be heard. A ticking
sound from the fuel pump may also be heard
from the rear section of the car. This is per-
fectly normal.
The parking heater starts automatically when
extra heat is required if the parking climate con-
trol's preconditioning
*
is activated.
It is then switched off automatically when the
right temperature, the time of a set timer or the
heater's maximum running time has been
reached.
The heater's maximum running time is
40 minutes.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's
normal fuel tank if the heater needs to be
used.
Make sure that there is enough charge in the
starter battery if the heater needs to be used.
IMPORTANT
Repeated use of the parking heater combined
with short journeys may discharge the battery
and impair starting.
If the heater is used on a regular basis, then
the car should be driven for the same amount
of time that the heater is used in order to
ensure that the car's battery is recharged with
the same amount of energy as consumed by
the parking heater. The parking heater is used
for a maximum of 40 minutes each time.
WARNING
Do not use preconditioning if the car is equip-
ped with a heater
*
:
•
In unventilated spaces indoors. Exhaust
gases are emitted if the heater starts.
•
In locations with combustible or flamma-
ble material nearby. Fuel, gas, long grass,
sawdust, etc. may ignite.
•
When there is a risk that the heater’s
exhaust line may be blocked. For exam-
ple, deep snow inside the front right-hand
wheel housing can obstruct the heater’s
ventilation.
Remember that the preconditioning can be
started by a timer that has been set for a long
time in advance.
WARNING
If there is a smell of fuel, unusual amounts of
smoke, black smoke, or unusual sounds com-
ing from the parking heater, switch off the
heater and, if possible, pull out its fuse. Volvo
recommends that an authorised Volvo work-
shop should be contacted for repair.
