PreconditioningPreconditioning the vehicle before driving can help reduce wear and reduce energy consump-tion during a trip.
NOTE
Full preconditioning is only possible when the vehicle's charging cable is connected. In other cases, the passenger compartment can be cooled for 3 minutes in warm weather. This function is started from the
Parking
climate tab in the center display's Climate
view.
With the charging cable connected, precondition- ing can be started immediately or a timer functioncan start this procedure at a later time. This feature utilizes several of the vehicle's sys- tems:
• The High Voltage Coolant Heater (HVCH) warms the hybrid battery and passengercompartment in cold weather.
• In warm weather, the ventilation system willattempt to cool the passenger compartmentto the current ambient temperature.
• In warm weather, the air conditioning systemwill cool the passenger compartment to acomfortable temperature.
• The electrically heated steering wheel andseats can be activated. •
Heating for the windshield, tailgate windowand door mirrors can be activated.
If preconditioning is used in warm weather, a cer- tain amount of water may condense under thevehicle, which is normal. When preconditioning is used, this system will attempt to establish a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment but not necessarily
the temperature currently set in the climate system .
Maintaining a comfortable passenger compartment climate
The climate in the passenger compartment can be maintained even when the vehicle is parkedand the engine is turned off (e.g., if anyoneintends to remain in the vehicle). This function can only be direct-started.This function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys- tems:
• Residual heat from the engine is used help keep the passenger compartment warm incool temperatures.
• In warm weather, the ventilation system willattempt to cool the passenger compartmentto the current ambient temperature.
This function will not be activated if the vehicle is locked from the outside in order to avoid usingresidual engine heat unnecessarily. This functionis primarily intended for use when the engine isnot running but someone remains in the vehicle.
