I
You can run the
engine to keep warm,
but be careful.
Run your engine only as long as
you
must.
This
saves fuel. When you run
the engine, make it go a little faster than just idle. That is, push the
accelerator slightly. This uses less fuel for the heat that you get and it
keeps the battery charged. You
will
need
a
well-charged battery to restart
the vehicle, and possibly
for
signaling later on
with
your headlamps. Let
the heater run
for
awhile.
Then, shut the engine
off
and close the window almost all
the
way
to
preserve the heat. Start the engine again and repeat this only when you
feel really uncomfortable from the cold. But
do
it
as little
as
possible.
