Keep car running (heating) when not in it?

Hi all. Quick one. How do I keep the heating or air conditioning on when I am not in the drivers seat? Let’s say I want to pop into the shop and let the kids in the car for a few minutes. My Enyaq always turns off. Thanks.

👍

I’m not sure how to leave the car cooling whilst occupied, but I’ll worry about that one in the summer 😆

Do you think it's clever enough to change the icon when it's hotter outside than in? :D

I wonder if you’ve seen that in the manual? 👍🤣

That’s a shame - would be a cool feature if that’s how it works. Meanwhile I’m still yet to get around to opening the manual!

I think the icon should be labelled ‘climate control on now’ as it almost certainly will cool as well as heat. But there’s not enough room for all those letters.

I used to pre-cool my Outlander quite often. Very handy with black leather seats in the middle of summer.
