You can adjust the temperature with the right rotary dial in the same manner as the adjustment for the front ventilation outlets. Use the levers at the centers of the vent outlets to control the direction of the emerging air. Residual heat mode The heat which is stored in the engine is utilized for heating of the interior when the engine has been switched off (while waiting at a railroad crossing, for instance). In ignition key position 1, you can alter the settings of the automatic climate control. In ignition key position 0, the system automatically directs heated air to the windshield, side windows and footwells. This function may be activated when the outside temperature is below approx. 597 (156), the engine is at operating temperature, and the battery is adequately charged. < 380de051 Draft-free ventilation You can adjust the vent outlets for the upper body area for individual selection of air-flow rates and directions: You can open and close the ventilation outlets with infinitely-variable adjustments and direct them up or down with the rotary dials 1. In the closed position, air exits only at the upper center of the instrument panel. You can use rotary dials 2 to adjust the flow direction from side to side. Set the outlets so that the air flows past you and is not directed straight at you.

The activatedcharcoal filter provides additional protection by filtering gaseous pollutants from the outside air. Your BMW center replaces the filter assemblies as a standard part of your scheduled maintenance. A substantial reduction in air flow indicates that the filter needs to be replaced early. 105n 1 Display for temperature and air supply 2 Temperature/ Switching the system on 3 Air supply/ Switching the system on The rear passengers can adjust the temperature for the ventilation outlets which are positioned above this as desired. The figures in the display provide a general indication of interior temperature. We recommend 707 (226) as a comfortable setting, whether the air conditioner is operating or not. When you start the vehicle, the system ensures that the selected temperature is achieved as quickly as possible. It then maintains this temperature, regardless of the season. 380de636 When you press "­" in the lowest blower speed, all of the displays are canceled: This setting deactivates the blower and shuts off the air supply.
