and close the air vents

the vents for the upper body area

Ventilation for cooling

Adjust the vent outlets to direct the flow of cool
air in your direction, for instance if it has become
too hot in the car.

Draft-free ventilation

Set the vent outlets so that the air flows past
you and not straight at you.

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.

Parked car ventilation

The concept

The parked car ventilation provides ventilation
to the passenger compartment and lowers its
temperature, if necessary. It is ready for use at
any outside temperature, as of radio readiness.
The parked car ventilation remains switched on
for approx. 30 minutes. Two different switch-on
times can be preselected. 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 driv-
ing in between to allow the battery to recharge.
The air emerges from the air vents for the upper
body area in the instrument panel. The air vents
must therefore be open.
