Head-up Display
The concept
This system projects important information
into the driver's field of vision, e.g., the speed.
The driver can get information without averting
his or her eyes from the road.
Display visibility The visibility of the displays in the Head-up
Display is influenced by the following factors:
▷Certain sitting positions.▷Objects on the cover of the Head-up Dis‐
play.▷Sunglasses with certain polarization filters.▷Wet roads.Seite 98ControlsDisplays98

scheduled maintenance, refer to page 215, of
your vehicle.
Ventilation

row 1.
Toward blue: colder.
Toward red: warmer.
The set interior temperature for the driver
and passenger are not changed.▷Lever for changing the air flow direction,
arrow 2.▷Thumbwheels for opening and closing the
vents continuously, arrows 3.
Adjusting the ventilation
▷Ventilation for cooling:
Direct vent in your direction when vehicle's
interior is too hot.▷Draft-free ventilation:
Adjust the vent to let the air flow past you.Parked-car ventilation/
heating
The concept The parked-car ventilation ventilates the vehi‐
cle interior and lowers its temperature, if
needed.
The parked-car heating warms the vehicle in‐
terior, making snow and ice easier to remove.
With the ignition switched off, the air is auto‐
matically routed to the windshield, to the side
windows, and into the footwell.
The systems can be switched on and off di‐
rectly or by using two preset reel-on times.
They remain switched on for 30 minutes.
Operation takes place on the iDrive or the re‐ mote control.
Hints Parked-car heating in enclosed areas
Do not operate the parked-car heating in
enclosed areas, since breathing in harmful ex‐
haust fumes may lead to loss of consciousness
and death. The exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide, an odorless and colorless but highly
toxic gas. Switch off the parked-car heating
when refueling.◀
Operation of the parked-car heating
When parked-car heating is in operation,
high temperatures can occur under the car
body. Before the parked-car heating is switched on, make sure that no flammable ma‐
terials, such as hay, leaves, grass, etc. are un‐
der the vehicle. Such contact could lead to a
fire, resulting in an increased risk of serious
personal injury as well as property damage.◀
At external temperatures below 32 ℉/0 ℃, wa‐
ter vapor occurs that emerges from below the
vehicle.Seite 165Climate controlControls165
