Do you have to setup the automatic climate control somehow to have the windows defrosted using the Auxiliary heater?
I mean, would it use your last settings or a kind of default setting.
According to the T70 datasheet it should be possible to use the remote for ventilation as well.
You know how to do that?
No it doesn't use the climate control. There is a separate combustion process that takes place. Sometimes you even hear the webasto exhaust backfire so don't panic when that happens. You will notice the exhaust pipe under the car approx below the steering wheel.
The temperature settings do not matter, In my experience I have noticed it is best to roll the dial to 3 red dots onthe dash board. That way, when you put on the heating approx 10 mins earlier and you get into a nice warm, cosy defrosted car. Great feature

It is also possible to ventilate but you have to reprograme the remote at the dealer during summer. A waste of time imo.
