Preconditioning
- Preconditioning is a climate function that, if possible, attempts to achieve a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment before driving.
- Preconditioning can be started immediately or started at a preset time using a timer.
- The function utilizes several of the vehicle’s systems:
- In cold weather, the parking heater heats the passenger compartment to a comfortable temperature.
- In warm weather, the air conditioning cools the passenger compartment to a comfortable temperature.
- The electrically-heated steering wheel and seats can be activated.
- Heating for the rear window and door mirrors is automatically activated as needed.
During preconditioning in a hot climate, condensation from the air conditions may drip under the vehicle. This is normal.
- Preconditioning is only available when the car is connected to an electrical socket. A charging port that is not always active, for example, because of a timer, can cause a loss of function for preconditioning.
- 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.
During preconditioning of the passenger compartment, the vehicle works to reach a comfortable temperature and not the temperature set in the climate system.
Precleaning* starts automatically when preconditioning is completed.

Starting from app
A device with the Polestar 1 app can be used to start preconditioning and check settings. Preconditioning heats or cools the passenger compartment (using the vehicle’s air conditioning system) to the comfort temperature.
The passenger compartment can also be preconditioned using the Engine Remote Start (ERS) function using the Polestar 1 app.
