   Why is my heater fan on when the engine

   This new or nearly new Citroen doesn't seem to have a marked Accessory   
   position for the key.   What I've been doing to save gas is turning the   
   engine off and turning the key back on  but stopping before it cranks   
   the engine.  Is that the right way?   
      
   It still lights up the entire spedometer cluster hat way, including   
   engine temp, gas level, wearing seatbelt icon, speedo, and tach.  That   
   seems to imply that I'm NOT in the designated accessory position ??????   
   But I can continue to play the radio, which is what the goal is.   
      
   In addition, the heater fan runs when it's in that position.   Is t his   
   a mistake in wiring it, or is there some true Accesorry position for the   
   key that I have not found yet.    I looked for the word acccsso in the   
   400 page owners manual, but I don't think any of the hits were on topic.
