This is the clause from my policy:-

"Loss or damage caused by theft or attempted theft or fire, if your car has been unlocked and unattended or the keys have been left in or on your car."

So...

Unlocked and unattended is a no-no.
Leaving the keys in or on the car is a no-no.

Nothing about leaving it running. Looks like I'm covered for my early morning defrost!
Why not lock the car while it's defrosting?! :
