To ensure the vehicle's minimum range, the
preconditioning may turn off automatically,
e.g., after repeated activation or because the
high-voltage battery has insufficient charge. If
the preconditioning turns off because the ve-
hicle has insufficient charge, charge the high-
voltage battery. The pre-conditioning is then
available again.
To turn on the pre-conditioning prior to a de-
parture time, the respective departure time
must be activated beforehand.
