Spot on Neil, but for practical use next best thing to useless.
Bit unusual for the Germans but not been followed through. It is a one shot setup, you can only select one of the timers at a time and as they are date as well as time sensitive you need to set it up for each and every time you need it. No good if you park up in reasonable weather and overnight the temperature plummets.
When you fit V55 and the extra bits to the Webasto it is also a good time to wire in a remote so that when you look out of the bedroom window and see an all white car you just click your remote and the car warms up.
I'm just thinking about a cheap and easy way to save me tramping out to the 8 in my dressing gown, the neighbours rottweiller is frightened enough already.
One day I'll tell you the tale of when I invented hazard vwarning lights and the Deutsche Polizei borrowed the idea.
