Preconditioning
Preconditioning is a climate function that, if possible, attempts to achieve a comfortabletemperature in the passenger compartmentbefore driving.
Preconditioning can be started immediately or started at a preset time using a timer. The function utilizes several of the vehicle's systems:
In cold weather, the parking heater heatsthe passenger compartment to a comfort-able temperature.
In warm weather, air conditioning coolsthe passenger compartment to a comfort-able temperature.
The electrically heated steering wheel
*
and seats * can be activated.
Heating for the windshield, rear windowand door mirrors are automatically acti-vated as needed.
During preconditioning in a hot climate, con-densation from the air conditions may dripunder the vehicle. This is normal.
NOTE
Preconditioning is only available when the car is connected to an electrical outlet. Acharging post that is not always active, forexample because of a timer, can cause lossof function for preconditioning. If the vehicle is not connected to an electri- cal socket it is still possible in a warm cli-mate to achieve brief cooling of the pas-senger compartment by direct starting pre-conditioning.
NOTE
During preconditioning of the passenger compartment, the vehicle works to reach acomfortable temperature and not the tem-perature set in the climate system.
