Coolant smell only when heater is used S70

Hi Everyone,
I have a situation where when i turn on the heater i smell coolant. What does this indicate?
Is there an easy fix?
When i dont turn on the heater i dont smell any coolant. I dont have any wet spots on the carpet either. I dont seem to be losing any. I dont see any leaks on the ground. I looked in the engine area and dont see any dried coolant or even coolant wet spots. I cant figure out what is happening?
