Hints
Parked-car heating in enclosed areas
Do not operate the parked-car heating in
enclosed areas, since breathing in harmful ex‐
haust fumes may lead to loss of consciousness
and death. The exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide, an odorless and colorless but highly
toxic gas. Switch off the parked-car heating
when refueling.◀

When parked-car heating is in operation,
high temperatures can occur under the car
body. Before the parked-car heating is
switched on, make sure that no flammable ma‐

fire, resulting in an increased risk of serious
personal injury as well as property damage.◀

ture.
The parked-car ventilation ventilates the vehi‐
cle interior and lowers its temperature, if
needed.
Open the vents to allow air to flow out.
The parked-car heating warms the vehicle in‐
terior, making snow and ice easier to remove.
