ADDITIONAL HEATING

Depending on the vehicle, the additional heating is designed to heat the passenger compartment. Powered by a dedicated fuel tank (please see “Additional heating tank” in Section 1), this increases the comfort level without reducing vehicle range.

Switching on this additional heating deactivates other heating methods and the air-conditioning.

Conditions of use

- The engine must be running;

- switch 4 must be engaged;

- the ventilation control 2 should not be at position 0;

- the temperature control 1 should not be at the “Heating off” position 3;

- The fuel level should not be at minimum.

When the fuel reaches the minimum level, a warning light will come on on the instrument panel. After a few minutes of operation, a message on the instrument panel will tell you that the additional heating is switched off.

Operating principle

With the engine running, press switch 4.

The operation cuts out:

- when the ignition is switched off;

- after a few minutes, when the minimum fuel level has been reached.

Operating fault

If the additional heating does not switch on:

- start the vehicle;

- switch on the heating by pressing switch 4;

- wait for 5 minutes;

- turn off the heater;

- switch off your vehicle ignition;

- restart the operation 4 or 5 times.

If the additional heating still fails to operate, please contact an authorised dealer.

With the engine running, when you open the driver’s door, a message will appear on the instrument panel along with a beep to tell you to switch off the additional heating.

Warnings concerning the use of additional heating

- Do not operate the additional heating in an enclosed location; exhaust fumes are poisonous.

- Do not park the vehicle or operate the additional heating in locations where flammable material or substances such as grass or leaves can come into contact with a hot exhaust system.

- Do not operate the additional heating when filling the fuel tank.
