WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the water in the heat exchanger in the heater has warmed up, the operating thermostat will open (at approximately 90°C). The fuel pump stops operating immediately.
The combustion fan runs an airing-out cycle for 102 seconds. When the temperature has fallen to approximately 60°C the thermostat closes and the heater reinitiates the glow phase (phase 3).
The following alternatives are available:
- The heater stops at approximately 90°C and starts at approximately 60°C. Refer to Checking Airing-Out .
- The operating thermostat does not open. The heater will then continue to operate until the overheating protection circuit is triggered or the timer breaks the circuit. Refer to Verify .
- The operating thermostat opens and closes at too low a temperature, so the car feels cold. Refer to Verify .
