Climate comfort retaining function
The climate in the passenger compartment can be maintained when the vehicle is parked, e.g. ifthe engine is turned off but the driver or passen-gers remain in the vehicle.
This function can only be direct-started. The function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys- tems:
• Residual heat from the engine is used tohelp heat the passenger compartment to acomfortable temperature.
• In warm weather, the ventilation system coolsthe passenger compartment by blowing air infrom outside.
NOTE
Climate comfort maintenance will be deacti- vated if the vehicle is locked from the outsidein order to avoid using residual engine heatunnecessarily. This function is intended to beused to maintain climate comfort when thedriver or a passenger remains in the vehicleafter the engine is turned off.
