Ventilation in rear Parked car ventilation* The concept The parked car ventilation blows air into the passenger compartment to lower interior temperatures. It is ready to use in the parked car mode at any outside temperature. You can set two different times for the system to start. The parked car ventilation can also be switched on and off directly. It remains switched on for 30 minutes. Since the system uses a substantial amount of electrical current, you should refrain from activating it twice in succession without allowing the battery to be recharged in normal operation between use. The air emerges through the upper body region air vents in the instrument panel. Therefore, please open the air vents. The parked car ventilation is operated via iDrive. 1 2 Knurled wheels to smoothly open and close air vents Knurled wheels to adjust temperature in upper body region; can be adjusted separately for left and right: > Turn toward blue: colder > Turn toward red: warmer 3 Levers to change the air vent direction Switching on and off directly iDrive, for operating principle refer to page 16. 1.
