Use transient solution as initial value for another transient simulation

Hi!
What I want to do: A transient Heat Transfer model where there is a new component added at a specific time, let's say t=180 s. The simulation then continues to end time. Temperature boundary condition is time-dependent.
What I have done so far: My idea is to sun a simulation on a model without the extra component and then use this result as initial value in a second simulation with new/changed geometry. I have tried this in a smaller "test" model: One single file, the same component but two physics and 2 study steps. Step 1 is t=0->180 s and step 2 is 180->360 s. My settings for study step 2 is attached.
-> How to properly use result 1 for simulation 2? Help would be vey much appreciated :-)
Best regards Robert Gustavsson
