Departure time 1 , Departure time
2, Departure time 3 : Three differ
ent de-
parture times (hh.mm) may be programmed. If
the auxiliary heater should only be switched
on a certain day of the week, this can also be
selected.
Duration : The duration det ermines the oper
-
ating time of the auxiliary heater when switch-
ed on using the fast heating button  on the air conditioning controls. The duration is also
used to calculate the departure time for the
manual air conditioner. It can be set between
10 and 60 minutes at 10-minute intervals.
E This returns to the main menu. The programmed departure time determines
the appr
oximat

e time it should take to reach
the temperature set in the vehicle. The start of
the heating operation is determined automat-
ically depending on the outside temperature.
Checking the programming
When a departure time is activated and the
ignition is switched off the control lamp of the
fast heating button  lights up for approxi- mately 10 seconds. WARNING
Never programme the auxiliary heater so
that it swit ches itself on and is running in an
encl

osed space or an area with no ventila-
tion. The auxiliary heater exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, an odourless
and colourl
ess t

oxic gas. Carbon monoxide
can cause people to lose consciousness. It
can also cause death. Operating instructions
The auxiliary heater exhaust system located
belo
w the v

ehicle must be kept clear of snow,
mud and other objects. The exhaust fumes
must be able to exit freely. The emissions
generated by the auxiliary heater are re-
moved via an exhaust pipe fitted underneath
the vehicle.
On heating the vehicle interior, depending on
the outside temperature, the warm air is first
directed at the windscreen and then to the
rest of the vehicle interior through the air
vents. Directing the diffusers

running. In this case power is consumed when
none is being gener at
ed.
In these sit
uations you will be aware that the
power management system is intervening to
control the distribution of electrical power.
When the vehicle is parked for long peri-
ods
If you do not drive your vehicle for a period of
several days or weeks, the power manage-
ment will gradually shut off the electrical de-
vices one by one or reduce the amount of
current they are using. This limits the amount
of power consumed and helps to ensure reli-
able starting even after a long period. Some
convenience functions, such as remote vehi-
cle opening, may not be available under cer-
tain circumstances. These functions will be
restored when you switch on the ignition and
start the engine.
With the engine switched off
For example, if you listen to the sound system
with the engine switched off the battery will
run down.
If the energy consumption means there is a
risk that the engine will not start, a text will
appear in vehicles with a driver information
system*.
This driver indicator tells you that you must
start the engine so that the battery can re-
charge. When the engine is running
Although the alternator gener
ates electrical
power, the battery can still become dis-
charged while the vehicle is being driven. This
can occur when a lot of power is being con-
sumed but only a small amount supplied, es-
pecially if the battery is not fully charged ini-
tially.
To restore the necessary energy balance, the
system will then temporarily shut off the elec-
trical devices that are using a lot of power, or
reduce the current they are consuming. Heat-
ing systems in particular use a large amount
of electrical power. If you notice, for instance,
that the seat heating* or the rear window
heater is not working, they may have been
temporarily switched off or regulated to a
lower heat output. These systems will be
available again as soon as sufficient electri-
cal power is available.
You may also notice that the engine runs at a
slightly faster idling speed when necessary.
This is quite normal, and no cause for con-
cern. The increased idling speed allows the
alternator to meet the greater power require-
ment and charge the battery at the same
time. Engine management and

Off-roader?
If your SEAT v ehicl

does not have enough ground clearance to
be used as such. It is therefore best to avoid
rough tracks and uneven terrain as much as
possible. WARNING

After use, always switch off the speed limit-
