Climate body. Therefore, open these vents for maximum cooling. The LED lights up when the function is switched on. From radio readiness the interior temperature, the air volume and the air distribution can be set. AUC Automatic recirculated-air control/recirculated-air mode You can respond to pollutants or unpleasant odors in the immediate environment by suspending the supply of outside air. The system then recirculates the air currently within the vehicle. During AUC operation, a sensor detects pollutants in the outside air and controls the shut-off automatically. By pressing the button repeatedly, you can request three operating modes: > LED off: outside air flows in continuously. > Right LED on, AUC mode: the system detects pollutants in the outside air and shuts off the supply as needed. > Left LED on, recirculated-air mode: the supply of outside air is permanently shut off. If condensation starts to form on the inside window surfaces during operation in the recirculated-air mode, you should switch it off while also increasing the air volume as required. The recirculated-air mode should not be used over an extended period of time, as the air quality inside the vehicle deteriorates continuously.< Switching off automatic climate control The air volume, the heater and the cooling function are all switched off. You can restart the automatic climate control by pressing any of its buttons except the REST button.

The function can be switched on when the following conditions are met: > up to 15 minutes after switching off the engine > with engine at operating temperature > with sufficient battery voltage > at an outside temperature below 777/ 256 Ventilation for cooling Adjust the vent outlets to direct the flow of cool air in your direction, for instance, if the interior has become too warm, etc. Draft-free ventilation Set the vent outlets so that the air flows past you and is not directed straight at you. 90 Online Edition for Part No. 01 41 0 012 213 - © 02/06 BMW AG
