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 vent outlets in the instrument panel. These vent outlets must be open for the system to operate. The parked car ventilation is operated via iDrive. 4.
