2013 BMW 7 SERIES wheel

The cooling function is switched on automati‐
cally with the AUTO program.
Intensity of the AUTO program
With the AUTO program switched on, auto‐
matic control of the air volume and air distribu‐
tion can be adjusted.
Press the left or right side of the but‐
ton: decrease or increase the inten‐
sity.
The selected intensity is shown on the display
of the automatic climate control.
Temperature Turn the wheel to set the de‐
sired temperature.
The automatic climate control achieves this
temperature as quickly as possible, if neces‐
sary with the maximum cooling or heating ca‐
pacity, and then keeps it constant.
Avoid rapidly switching between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate con‐
trol will not have sufficient time to adjust the
set temperature.
Manual air distribution
The air distribution can be adjusted to individ‐
ual needs.
Press the button repeatedly to select
a program:▷Upper body region.▷Upper body region and footwell.▷Footwell.
Air volume, manual
To be able to manually adjust the air volume,
switch off the AUTO program first.
Press the left or right side of the but‐
ton: decrease or increase air volume.
The selected air volume is shown on the dis‐
play of the automatic climate control.
Switching the system on/off
Switching off Press and hold the left button.
Switching on
Press any button except:▷Left side of Air volume button.▷Seat heating.▷Seat ventilation.
Maximum cooling
Press the button.
The system is set to the lowest tem‐
perature, maximum air flow and air circulation
mode.
Air flows out of the vents for the upper body
region. Open them for this purpose.
Air is cooled as quickly as possible:
▷At an external temperature of approx.
32 ℉/0 ℃.▷When the engine is running.

Air volumePress the left or right side of the but‐
ton: decrease or increase air volume.
LEDs indicate the intensity of the air supply.
The air volume may be reduced automatically
to save battery power.
Ventilation
Thumbwheel for changing the air flow direc‐
tion, arrow.
Parked-car ventilation
The concept The parked-car ventilation ventilates the vehi‐cle interior and lowers its temperature, if nec‐
essary.
The switch-on time is automatically deter‐
mined based on the temperature. The system
promptly switches on before the selected de‐
parture time.
The system can be switched on and off di‐
rectly or by using two preset switch-on times. It remains switched on for 30 minutes.
The system can be switched on and off di‐
rectly or by using two preset departure times.
Operation can be performed via iDrive.

Wheels and tiresVehicle equipment
All standard, country-specific and optional
equipment that is offered in the model series is
described in this chapter. Therefore, equip‐
ment is also described that is not available in a
vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional
equipment or country variant. This also applies
for safety-related functions and systems.
Tire inflation pressure Safety information
The tire characteristics and tire inflation pres‐
sure influence the following:▷The service life of the tires.▷Road safety.▷Driving comfort.
Checking the pressure
Only check the tire inflation pressure when the
tires are cold. This means after driving no more
than 1.25 miles/2 km or when the vehicle has
been parked for at least 2 hours. When the
tires are warm, the tire inflation pressure is
higher.
Check the tire inflation pressure regularly
Regularly check the tire inflation pres‐
sure, and correct it as needed: at least twice a
month and before a long trip. If you fail to ob‐
serve this precaution, you may be driving on
tires with incorrect tire pressures, a condition
that may not only compromise your vehicle's
driving stability, but also lead to tire damage
and the risk of an accident.◀
After correcting the tire inflation pressure:
▷Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor.▷Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor.Pressure specifications The tire inflation pressure table, refer to
page 200, contains all pressure specifications
for the specified tire sizes at the ambient tem‐
perature. Pressure specifications apply to ap‐
proved tire sizes and recommended tire
brands. This information can be obtained from
your service center.
To identify the correct tire inflation pressure,
please note the following:▷Tire sizes of your vehicle.▷Maximum permitted driving speed.
Tire inflation pressures up to
100 mph/160 km/h
For speeds of up to 100 mph/160 km/h and for
optimum driving comfort, note the pressure
values in the tire inflation pressure table, refer
to page 200, and adjust as necessary.
These pressure values can also be found on
the tire inflation pressure label on the driver's
door pillar.
Maximum permissible speed
Do not exceed 100 mph/160 km/h; other‐
wise, tire damage and accidents may result.◀
