2023 Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure Electric Preconditioning

Preconditioning

Preconditioning is a climate function that, if possible, attempts to reach comfort temperature in the passenger compartment before departure.
Preconditioning can use a direct start or be set via the timer from the centre display. It can also be started from a device that has the Volvo Cars app.

The function utilizes several systems in different cases:

  • In a cold climate, the parking heater warms up the passenger compartment to a comfortable temperature.
  • The air conditioning, in a hot climate, cools the passenger compartment to the comfortable temperature.
  • Activation of a heated steering wheel and heated seats for driver and passenger can be selected.
  • Heated rear window and door mirrors are automatically activated as required.

During preconditioning in a hot climate, condensation from the air conditioning may drip under the car. This is normal.

Note
Preconditioning is available when the high voltage battery is sufficiently charged, but performing preconditioning without the car being connected to charging affects the car’s range to a great extent.
Note
During preconditioning of the passenger compartment, the car works to reach comfort temperature and not the temperature set in the climate control system.
Note
  • Air purification starts automatically when preconditioning is completed.
  • Windows and doors must be closed for air purification to be possible.

Start and switch off preconditioning

Preconditioning heats or cools the passenger compartment, if possible, prior to driving. The function is started directly from the centre display or the Volvo Cars app.

  • Open the climate view in the centre display by tapping on the temperature button at the bottom centre of the centre display.
  • Press Parking.
  • Tap on Start heating/cooling to start preconditioning directly.
Note

Preconditioning is available when the high voltage battery is sufficiently charged, but performing preconditioning without the car being connected to charging affects the car’s range to a great extent.
Note
The car’s doors and windows should be closed during the preconditioning of the passenger compartment.
Note
  • Air purification starts automatically when preconditioning is completed.
  • Windows and doors must be closed for air purification to be possible.
Note
  • When the driver’s seat is occupied preconditioning is paused, and normal climate control is started.
  • When the car starts to drive, preconditioning is switched off.
