Parking heating/Parking ventilation
The parking heater operates when the outside temperature is below 16°C with the key removed from the ignition or turned to position 0 or 1.
Using the possibility of pre-switching on the parking heating at a predetermined time, you can sit in an already heated passenger compartment. In addition, in cold weather it will make it easier for you to clean the car from snow and ice.
The duration of parking heating and ventilation is 30 minutes. Due to high power consumption, do not turn on the system twice in a row without first recharging the battery while driving.
Normal heating mode:
- open all nozzles as needed with the three air distribution levers and the front grilles;
- close the fresh air nozzles at the end of the center console;
- set the rotary switch for the amount of air supplied to the position "12 hours".
Air conditioner
Open all nozzles as needed with the three air distribution levers and the front grilles. Close the fresh air nozzles at the end of the center console.
Automatic air conditioning system
Heated air flows automatically through the heated glass nozzles in the footwell front and rear. Adjusting the air distribution using the buttons is only possible when the ignition key is turned to position 1.
Both in normal vehicle heating mode and when the air conditioner and automatic air conditioning system are on, the temperature in the passenger compartment can be adjusted using the rotary switch or temperature adjusting roller only when the key is turned in the ignition switch to. position 1. In position 0, heating is carried out as intensively as possible.
Keep in mind - the parking heater remains on for some time after it has been switched off (LED goes out).
Important Notes
If the parking heating after maximum two attempts starter does not switch on or switches off automatically, contact BMW Service for advice.
It is strictly forbidden to turn on parking heating in enclosed spaces.
Always turn off the parking heater when refueling!
Recommended - in the warm season, turn on the parking heater for a short time at least once a month (approx. 5 minutes).
At temperatures above 16°C, proceed as follows: Timer - press the A-TEMP button for 3 seconds, the letter E appears.
On-board computer - press the A-TEMP and ZEIT buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds, the inscription appears "in". After that, parking heating can be switched on 1 time (direct on/off).
At outside temperatures above 16°C parking ventilation can be used to blow the interior and lower the temperature in it (key positions in the ignition lock are the same as the key positions in the parking heater).
Air is blown by a fan of an automatic heating or air conditioning system.
Normal heating mode:
- Open all nozzles as needed with three levers; ventilation is most effective through the fresh air intake nozzles in front or at the end of the center console;
- set the rotary switch for the amount of air supplied to the position "12 hours".
Air conditioner
Open the nozzle as needed; ventilation is most effective through the front or rear nozzles.
Automatic air conditioning system
Air enters automatically through the nozzles on the instrument panel in the selected direction and the required amount. Therefore, to ensure the effectiveness of the standby ventilation mode, the nozzles must be fully open.
