Interior climate when parked

Note

Parking climate functions automatically turn off when their maximum running time is reached or the vehicle battery level is too low.

Preconditioning

Preconditioning automatically activates auto climate mode to warm up or cool down the passenger compartment to a comfortable temperature before you enter your vehicle. It also preconditions the battery to help your vehicle's performance and range.

You can schedule single and recurring preconditioning timers in the center display or via the mobile app for the vehicle. Preconditioning automatically deactivates when you enter the vehicle or when the scheduled time is reached.

Tip

When setting a timer via the mobile app, you can select what you want to precondition and set your preferred passenger compartment temperature.

For preconditioning to be available, the traction battery must be sufficiently charged. If preconditioning is started when your vehicle is not connected for charging, the vehicle's range will be affected.

Note

When preconditioning in a hot climate, condensation might drip under the vehicle. This is normal.

Keeping climate active

You can maintain a comfortable interior climate in your vehicle while it is parked. This includes keeping the climate functions and the entertainment system on. You can activate the keep climate active function via the center display. Just be aware that range may be affected if you leave this setting on for too long.
