to extreme heat or cold in theve hicle
If people, particular lych ildren, are exposed to
ex treme temp eratures over an extended period of time,
there is a risk of serious injury
or danger tolife. #
Never lea vepersons, children in particu-
lar, unattended in theve hicle. The
vehicle interior can be air conditioned when
th eve hicle is par ked.
When theve hicle is connected topowe r supply
equipment, priority is given tocharging the high-
vo ltage battery toa speci/ed minimum charge.
The running time of pre-entry clima tecont rol may
be reduced under thefo llowing conditions:
R The vehicle is not connected topowe r supply
equipment.
R The high-voltage battery is not charge d su1-
