vents continuously, arrows 3.
Adjusting the ventilation
▷Ventilation for cooling:
Adjust the vent to direct the air in your di‐
rection, e.g., if the vehicle interior is hot
from the sun.▷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 nec‐
essary.
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 departure times.
The switch-on time is automatically deter‐
mined based on the temperature. The systems
promptly switch on before the selected depar‐
ture time.
Operation takes place on the iDrive or the re‐ mote control.
Note Parked-car heating in enclosed areas
Do not operate the parked-car heating in
enclosed areas, as breathing of the 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.◀
At external temperatures below 32 ℉/0 ℃, wa‐
ter vapor occurs that emerges from below the
vehicle.
