Default Re: Engine Block Heater

belbe — Why don't you try rotating the temperature control to maximum. This will switch ECO mode "off" automatically, and switch "on" electric heat for the interior of the vehicle, until the ICE gets up to temperature. This should defrost your windshield much more quickly than waiting for the ICE to warm up. It's not as environmentally friendly, but might be what you need.
