Operating auxiliary heating
Your vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary heater and timer. The auxiliary heater can be manually switched on or conveniently programmed using the timer to specify at what time on which day and for how long the vehicle interior should be heated. You can also use the residual warmth of the coolant to heat the vehicle interior.

Note
Pressing the function key Auxiliary heater does not switch the auxiliary heater on or off. Instead, a new screen appears in which you can precisely define the parameters for programming the auxiliary heater. You can also activate the auxiliary heater here. Thus, the coloured bar next to the lettering serves in this function only to indicate already in the screen AIR CONDITIONING/Other functions whether the auxiliary heater is switched on or off.
The auxiliary heater will not be activated if the fuel level is too low or the vehicle electrics are not functioning properly.
