Operating the auxiliary heating by remote control (auxiliary warm-air heater)
DANGER Risk of fatal injury due to poisonous exhaust gases

If the tailpipe is blocked or sufficient ventilation is not possible, poisonous exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide may enter the vehicle. This is the case in enclosed spaces or if the vehicle gets stuck in snow, for example.

Always switch the stationary heater off in enclosed spaces without an air extraction systems, e.g. in garages.
Keep the tailpipe and the area around the vehicle free from snow when the engine or the stationary heater are running.
Open a window on the windward side of the vehicle to ensure an adequate supply of fresh air.
WARNING Risk of fire due to hot stationary heater components and exhaust gases

Flammable materials such as leaves, grass or twigs may ignite.

When the stationary heater is switched on, make sure that:
hot vehicle parts do not come into contact with flammable materials.
the exhaust gas can flow out of the stationary heater exhaust pipe unhindered.
the exhaust gas does not come into contact with flammable materials.
NOTE Damage to the auxiliary heating due to overheating

If the flow of hot air is blocked, the auxiliary heating may overheat and switch off.

Do not block the flow of hot air.
NOTE Battery discharge caused by stationary heater or stationary ventilation operation

Operating the stationary heater or stationary ventilation drains the battery.

After heating or ventilating the vehicle twice, drive for a longer period of time.

You can switch the auxiliary heating on and off as well as set the operating duration with a remote control. The remote control must be synchronised with the auxiliary heating system receiver. For more information, please contact a qualified specialist workshop.

Store the remote control for the auxiliary heating such that the auxiliary heating function cannot be switched on unintentionally. In particular, ensure that the remote control is kept out of the reach of children.

The remote control has a range of approximately 300 m. The range is reduced by sources of radio interference or solid objects, for example.
