Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
The microfilter traps dust and pollen in the
incoming air. The activated-charcoal filter pro-
vides additional protection by filtering gaseous
pollutants from the outside air. Your BMW cen-
ter replaces this combined filter during routine
maintenance.
With the blower at its lowest set-
ting, press the left side of the but-
ton to switch off the automatic cli-
mate control.
All displays are cleared except for the rear win-
dow defroster if it is switched on.
Parked car ventilation*
The outside air supply is blocked when
the automatic climate control is switched
off. If the air quality deteriorates or the window
fogs over, switch the system back on and
increase the air volume.<
The concept
The parked car ventilation provides ventilation
to the passenger compartment and lowers its
temperature, if necessary.
Switching on
The parked car ventilation system is operated
via iDrive, refer to page 16. Two different
switch-on times can be preselected.
Press any button except the ALL or the rear
window defroster button to reactivate the auto-
matic climate control.
The parked car ventilation remains switched on
for approx. 30 minutes. The system can also be
switched on and off directly. Due to its high
power consumption, it should not be switched
on twice in a row without driving in between to
allow the battery to recharge.
Ventilation
The parked car ventilation system comes on if
the outside temperature is above 597/156
when the switch-on time was preselected, but
is ready for use at any temperature when the
system is switched on directly.
The air emerges from the air vents for the upper
body area in the instrument panel. The air vents
must therefore be open.
