Welcome to the forum!
It depends on what software you have but even with the old software it should achieve a reasonable temperature. This is mine with the old software showing temperature over minutes:

Since the above test my MY13 has been updated so that the heating phase runs for longer, which makes quite a difference.

In the pre-heating example above the total is about 0.17 litres.
Of course, if you go for a drive immediately after pre-heating you will burn less fuel at the FBH and your MPG will increase a bit to help compensate, as everything will get to operating temperature quicker.
If you don't drive it or only drive a short distance the 170ml of fuel will just be lost and you are down best part of 20 pence.
