Automatically activating and

deactivating the heated rear window

and door mirrors

The heated rear window and door mirrors are
used to quickly remove condensation and ice
from the glass.

It is possible to select whether rear window and
door mirror heating should be automatically acti-
vated or deactivated when the engine is started.
With automatic start activated, heating will be
activated when there is a risk of ice or condensa-
tion on the windows or mirrors. Heating is auto-
matically switched off when the window or door
mirror is sufficiently warm and the condensation
or ice is gone.

Parking climate

Parking climate is an umbrella term for various
functions that improve the passenger compart-
ment climate when the vehicle is parked, e.g.
preconditioning.

Parking climate functions are controlled from the

Parking climate tab in the center display's Climate view.

Preconditioning

Preconditioning the vehicle before driving can
help reduce wear and reduce energy consump-
tion during a trip.

Preconditioning can be started immediately or
started at a preset time using a timer.

The function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys-
tems:

•

In cold weather, the parking heater heats the
passenger compartment to a comfortable
temperature.

•

In warm weather, air conditioning cools the
passenger compartment to a comfortable
temperature.

•

The electrically heated steering wheel* and
seats* can be activated.

•

Heating for the windshield, rear window and
door mirrors are automatically activated as
needed.

During preconditioning in a hot climate, conden-
sation from the air conditions may drip under the
vehicle. This is normal.

CLIMATE CONTROL

}}

225

NOTE

Preconditioning is only available when the car
is connected to an electrical outlet. A charg-
ing post that is not always active, for example
because of a timer, can cause loss of function
for preconditioning.

If the car is not connected to an electrical
socket it is still possible in a warm climate to
achieve brief cooling of the passenger com-
partment by direct starting preconditioning.

NOTE

During preconditioning of the passenger
compartment, the vehicle works to reach a
comfortable temperature and not the tem-
perature set in the climate system.

closed during preconditioning of the passen-
ger compartment.

Starting from app*

A device with the Volvo On Call* app can be used
to start preconditioning or check settings. Pre-
conditioning heats or cools the passenger com-
partment (using the vehicle's air conditioning) to
a comfortable temperature.

The passenger compartment can also be precon-
ditioned using the Engine Remote Start (ERS)

function using the Volvo On Call* app.

Climate comfort retaining function

The climate in the passenger compartment can
be maintained when the vehicle is parked, e.g. if
the engine is turned off but the driver or passen-
gers remain in the vehicle.

This function can only be direct-started.

The function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys-
tems:

•

Residual heat from the engine is used to
help heat the passenger compartment to a
comfortable temperature.

•

In warm weather, the ventilation system cools
the passenger compartment by blowing air in
from outside.

NOTE

Climate comfort maintenance will be deacti-
vated if the vehicle is locked from the outside
in order to avoid using residual engine heat
unnecessarily. This function is intended to be
used to maintain climate comfort when the
driver or a passenger remains in the vehicle
after the engine is turned off.

Heater

The heater helps the engine and passenger
compartment reach the correct temperature
before and while driving.

The heater has two sub-functions:

•

Parking heater - heats the passenger com-
partment as needed when the parking cli-
mate's preconditioning is activated.

•

Auxiliary heater - heats the passenger com-
partment and engine while driving.

The heater is a high-voltage coolant heater and is
mounted in the front right-side wheel housing.

Battery and charging

The heater is powered by the vehicle's hybrid bat-
tery. If the charge level in the hybrid battery is too
low, the heater will switch off automatically and a
message will be displayed in the instrument
panel.

NOTE

Make sure that the battery has sufficient
charge if the heater must be used.

Parking heater

The parking heater heats the passenger com-
partment as needed before driving if precondi-
tioning is activated.

The parking heater is one of two sub-functions of
the vehicle's heater. The heater is mounted in the
front right-side wheel housing.

The parking heater starts automatically if the
parking climate's preconditioning is activated and
the passenger compartment needs to be heated.

It switches off automatically when a set timer
time or the heater's maximum run time expires, or
if the car is restarted.

The heater's maximum running time is 40
minutes.

Additional heater

The auxiliary heater helps heat the passenger
compartment and engine while driving.

The auxiliary heater is one of two sub-functions
of the vehicle's heater. The heater is mounted in
the front right-side wheel housing.

The auxiliary heater is started and controlled
automatically when extra heat is required while
the vehicle is being driven.

It switches off automatically when the ignition is
switched off.
