S60 Recharge Plug-in Hybrid Starting and stopping preconditioning

Starting and stopping from the vehicle

Tap the symbol in the center of the climate bar to open Climate view in the center display.

Select the Parking climate tab.

Tap the boxes to select if seat/steering wheel heating should be activated along with preconditioning for each function.

Tap Start Pre-con. & Cleaning.

Preconditioning starts/stops and the button lights up/goes out.

Note

Preconditioning can be used to warm up the vehicle even if it is not connected to an electrical outlet. Full preconditioning is available when the hybrid battery has a sufficient charge level. Otherwise, preconditioning is limited depending on the charge level of the hybrid battery.

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

If the vehicle is connected to charging and the battery is fully charged, the timer for preconditioning can be run up to 120 minutes with energy from the charger.

A charging post that is not always active, for example because of a timer, can cause loss of function for preconditioning.

Note

The vehicle doors and windows should be closed during preconditioning of the passenger compartment.

Note

Pre-cleaning* starts automatically when preconditioning is complete.

Starting from app

A device with the Volvo Cars* app can be used to start preconditioning or check settings. Preconditioning heats or cools the passenger compartment (using the vehicle's air conditioning) to a comfortable temperature.

The passenger compartment can also be preconditioned using the Engine Remote Start (ERS)1 function using the Volvo Cars* app.
