Climate control
Fuel-driven parking heater (option)
General
The electrical system must be "awakened"
before the parking heater can be
programmed.
This is most easily done by:
• pressing the READ button or
• activating main beam or
• turning on the ignition.
The parking heater can be started immedi-
ately or set with two different start times
using TIMER 1 and TIMER 2. Start time
refers to the time the car should be heated
and ready.
The car’s electronic system calculates when
heating should be started based on the
outside temperature. If the outside temper-
ature exceeds 25 °C, the heater does not
switch on. At temperatures from −10 °C and
below, the maximum running time of the
parking heater is 60 minutes.
If the parking heater does not start despite
repeated attempts, a message is shown in
the display. Contact an authorised Volvo
workshop.
Messages on the display
Once the settings for TIMER 1, TIMER 2 and
Direct Start are activated, the amber warning
symbol in the combined instrument panel
lights and explanatory text is shown in the
display.
When you leave the car, you will receive a
message regarding the current settings of
the system.

Parking on a hill
If you park your car on a steep incline, the
front of the car should be facing up the slope
to ensure the supply of fuel to the parking
heater.
Car clock/timer
For safety reasons, all timer settings will be
cleared if the car clock is reset after timer
settings have been made.
WARNING!
• Switch off the parking heater before
refuelling. Spilled fuel could be ignited.
• Check the information display to ensure
that the parking heater is off. (When the
parking heater is running, PARK
HEAT ON is shown on the display.)
WARNING!
The car must be outdoors when the
parking heater is used.
