Climate Comfortable interior climate AUTO program 6 offers the ideal air distribution and air flow rate for almost all conditions, refer to AUTO program below. In addition, you can select an interior temperature you find pleasant. The following sections inform you in detail about how to adjust the settings. The higher the air flow rate, the more effective the air conditioning will be. Switching the system on/off Turn the rotary switch to 0. The automatic climate control is switched off and the air supply is cut off. To switch on the automatic climate control, set any desired air flow rate. Air distribution, manual Direct the flow of air to the windows , to the upper body area and to the footwell . Intermediate settings are possible. The arrow lights up. The automatic air supply remains unchanged. You can switch the automatic air distribution back on by pressing the AUTO button. Switching cooling function on/off When the cooling function is on, the air is cooled, dehumidified, then reheated depending on the temperature setting. Depending on the weather, the windshield may fog over briefly when the engine is started. The cooling function is automatically switched on along with the AUTO program. The passenger compartment can only be cooled while the engine is running. Defrosting windows and removing condensation Quickly removes ice and condensation from the windshield and side windows. AUTO program The AUTO program adjusts the air distribution to the windshield and side windows, towards the upper body area and into the footwell for you. The air flow rate and your temperature specifications will be adapted to outside influences as a result of seasonal changes, e.g. sunlight or window condensation. The cooling is switched on automatically with the AUTO program. The AUTO program functions only to a limited extent when the convertible top is open.< Maximum cooling At outside temperatures above 32 7/0 6 and when the engine is running, you obtain a maximum cooling effect as soon as possible. The automatic climate control switches to the lowest temperature and operates in recirculated-air mode. Air flows at maximum rate only from the vents for the upper body area. You should therefore open them for maximum cooling. Temperature Set the desired temperature. The values on the dial are approximations of the respective temperature resulting in the passenger compartment. The automatic climate control achieves this temperature as quickly as possible regardless of the season, using maximum cooling or heating power if necessary, and then maintains it. If you switch between different temperature settings in quick succession, the Air flow rate, manual Adjust the air flow rate. The arrow lights up. The automatic air distribution remains unchanged. You can reactivate the automatic mode for the air flow rate with the AUTO button. 66 Online Edition for Part no. 01 41 0 014 500 - © 08/07 BMW AG
