The present disclosure provides a method and system for a vehicle disinfection mode. Methods and systems are provided for thermally disinfecting a vehicle. In one example, a method may include, when power is received from an external power source and in response to receiving a request to clean an interior of a vehicle, operating an electric heater of a heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system using power received from the external power source to heat the interior above an upper threshold temperature for a first threshold duration. In this manner, the HVAC system may be advantageously used to expose the interior of the vehicle to temperatures at which microorganisms are killed or inactivated, while conserving vehicle battery power and fuel by using power supplied from an external power source.
本公开提供了“用于车辆消毒模式的方法和系统”。提供了用于对车辆进行热消毒的方法和系统。在一个示例中,一种方法可以包括:当从外部电源接收电力时并且响应于接收到清洁车辆的内部的请求,使用从外部电源接收的电力来操作暖通空调(HVAC)系统的电加热器以将内部加热到高于上限阈值温度持续第一阈值持续时间。通过这种方式,HVAC系统可以有利地用于将车辆内部暴露于杀灭微生物或使微生物失活的温度,同时通过使用从外部电源供应的电力来节省车辆电池电量和燃料。
