AUXILIARY HEATER
Principle of Operation
The system is designed to reduce the time
needed to heat the engine when it is
running. It turns on or off depending on the
outside air temperature and the coolant
temperature.
The system warms the engine and the
vehicle interior. It uses fuel from the
vehicle fuel tank.
Using the Auxiliary Heater
WARNING: We recommend that
you have a qualified technician check
and repair the heater system after a
crash. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury or death. WARNING: Do not use the auxiliary
heater at fuel filling stations or near
sources of combustible vapors, dust or
in enclosed spaces. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury
or death. The system requires a minimum of
6.1 gal
(23 L) of fuel in the vehicle fuel tank and
the outside air temperature has to be
below
37°F (3°C).
Note: The system does not operate if the
battery charge level is low.
Note: Do not use biodiesel fuel B20 as this
reduces the lifetime of the heater operation.
Note: Make sure the heater exhaust outlet,
under the vehicle, under the driver
compartment, is free from snow, ice, mud
and any other blockages to avoid issues with
the heater operation.
Note: Driving through water can cause
damage to the heater. See Driving Through
Water
(page 255).
Note: When the system is on, exhaust
fumes come from under your vehicle. This
is normal.
Note: If the heater is in the process of
stopping, excess fuel in the heater burns out
and there is some heat, exhaust and noise.
Switching the Auxiliary Heater On and Off
To switch the auxiliary heater on or off, use the information display controls on
the steering wheel to select the following: Action
Menu Item
Press the menu button.
Settings
Press the
OK button.
Vehicle Settings
Press the
OK button.
Aux Heater

2020 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, LK3J 19A321 HA enUSA, Edition date: 201911, First-Printing Climate Control
If it illuminates when the engine is running
this indicates a malfunction. If it flashes
when you are driving, immediately reduce
the vehicle speed. Avoid heavy
acceleration and deceleration and have
your vehicle immediately serviced.
If both lamps illuminate when the engine
is running, stop your vehicle as soon as it
is safe to do so. Continuing to drive your
vehicle may cause reduced power or the
engine to stop. Switch the ignition off and
attempt to restart the engine. Have your
vehicle immediately checked.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
Vehicles With a Turbocharger
WARNING: Do not switch the
engine off when it is running at high
speed. If you do, the turbocharger will
continue running after the engine oil
pressure has dropped to zero. This will
lead to premature turbocharger bearing
wear.
Release the accelerator pedal. Wait until
the engine has reached idle speed and then
switch it off.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
(IF
EQUIPPED) WARNING:
Failure to follow engine
block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury. WARNING: Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock. WARNING:
Do not fully close the
hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power
cable and may cause an electrical short
resulting in fire, injury and property
damage.
Note: The heater is most effective when
outdoor temperatures are below
0°F
(-18°C).
The heater acts as a starting aid by
warming the engine coolant. This allows
the climate control system to respond
quickly. The equipment includes a heater
element, installed in the engine block and
a wire harness. You can connect the
system to a grounded 120-volt AC
electrical source.
We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by
Underwriter ’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.
• Use as short an extension cord as
possible.
• Do not use multiple extension cords.
• Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and heater cord
plug connections are free and clear of
water. This could cause an electric
shock or fire.

2020 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, LK3J 19A321 HA enUSA, Edition date: 201911, First-Printing Starting and Stopping the Engine
•
If the block heater cord is under the
hood, Do Not remove the wiring from
its original location. Do Not close the
hood on the extension wiring.
• Make sure your vehicle is parked in a
clean area, clear of combustibles.
• Make sure the heater, heater cord and
extension cord are firmly connected.
• Check for heat anywhere in the
electrical hookup once the system has
been operating for approximately 30
minutes.
• Make sure the system is unplugged and
properly stowed before starting and
driving your vehicle. Make sure the
protective cover seals the prongs of the
block heater cord plug when not in use.
• Make sure the heater system is
checked for proper operation before
winter.
Using the Engine Block Heater
Make sure the receptacle terminals are
clean and dry prior to use. Clean them with
a dry cloth if necessary.
The heater uses 0.4 to 1.0 kilowatt-hours
of energy per hour of use. The system does
not have a thermostat. It achieves
maximum temperature after
approximately three hours of operation.
Using the heater longer than three hours
does not improve system performance and
unnecessarily uses electricity.
