Car heating plug sockets
Car-heating is timer-controlled. There is a timer for each plug socket, and the user can set it as needed. Under all circumstances, it is enough to have the engine-block heater on for two hours, and a longer heating time is sheer waste of energy. In mild weather, a shorter heating time is sufficient.
If you are not going to use your can soon, do not plug it in. In this way you save energy and your car as well.
Always keep the cover plate of the plug socket box locked and never leave the cord hanging loose. If the cord is connected to the plug socket but not to a car, a maintenance person may remove it.
Do not plug your car in to any other plug socket than a car-heating one.
Check the condition of the car-heating plug sockets regularly and report any faults you notice.
If the car-heating is not working, check the following matters:
- Has the automatic fuse inside the plug socket box tripped to the low position? If it has, raise the lever of the automatic fuse back to the high position.
- Has the fault current fuse or fault current guard inside the plug socket box tripped to the low position? If it has, raise the lever of the fault current guard back to the high position.
- Is the heating apparatus of your car in working order?
If, despite these measures, the car-heating still doesn’t work or the automatic fuse or fault current guard trips again, then the fault is in the plug socket.
