tions. If the outside temperature is less than about +10 °C, the auto-
matic air recirculation will only operate for 30 seconds. If the air
conditioner is switched to the ECON mode, or if the outside temper-
ature is less than about -1 °C, the automatic air recirculation will
only operate for 15 seconds.Applies to vehicles: with deluxe automatic air conditioner plusSynchronisation
The air conditioner settings can be synchronised for all
passengers.When the synchronisation function is on, the driver's settings are
also applied to the front passenger or vice versa. Any subsequent
changes to the air conditioner settings (except for the seat heating*)
are also applied to the other occupant.
You can still change the setting on the “synchronised” side (this will
deactivate the synchronisation function).Auxiliary heating and auxiliary
ventilationApplies to vehicles: with auxiliary heating - under development at the time of printingDescription
The auxiliary heating and ventilation systems heat and
cool the interior independently of the engine.The auxiliary heating
works in conjunction with the air condi-
tioner system, but does not rely on heat from the engine. Instead of
this, the system burns fuel. The system's main function is to warm
up the interior of the vehicle and to defrost the windows in cold
weather.The auxiliary heating system can be used both when the vehicle is
stationary and when driving (to provide extra heat while the engine
is warming up).
The auxiliary ventilation
also operates independently of the
engine. This feature can be used to cool the interior with the blower
when the vehicle is left parked in the sun.
The system will automatically activate either the auxiliary heating or
the auxiliary ventilation mode, depending on the actual tempera-
ture measured inside the car and the temperature you have set with
the air conditioner controls. It is possible to alter the temperature
setting while the auxiliary heating/ventilation is running.
Switching on and off
There are two different ways of switching on the auxiliary
heating/ventilation system.
•
Immediate start: You can switch the auxiliary heating/ventilation
on and off at any time in the MMI Car menu ⇒page 109. You can
also switch the system on and off using the remote control
⇒page 111.
•
Switching on via timer: You can programme various start times
using the timers ⇒page 110. However you must first activate the
timer before the auxiliary heating/ventilation system will switch on
automatically.
The auxiliary heating/ventilation will switch itself off at the end of
the programmed running time. The running time can be set to 15,
30, 45 or 60 minutes ⇒page 111.
WARNING
•
The auxiliary heating must not be allowed to run when the
vehicle is in a confined space because it can give off toxic fumes.
•
To avoid any possible fire risk, never have the auxiliary heating
switched on when refuelling the vehicle.
•
Because of the high temperatures which occur when the auxil-
iary heating is running, make sure when parking the car that the

At the operating unit
1. Switch on the ignition (do not start the engine).
2. Press and hold down the two outer HomeLink buttons
⇒page 145, fig. 160 until the indicator diode
⇒page 145, fig. 160 begins to flash after about
20 seconds. This procedure will delete the standard
factory settings and does not need to be repeated when
programming the other buttons.
3. Press the particular HomeLink button which you would
like to program.
4. Wait until the diode begins to flash. The HomeLink
module now remains in training mode for 5 minutes.
5. Now step in front of your vehicle with the original hand-
held transmitter for the garage door opener or any other
device you wish to assign to the HomeLink control
button.
At the radiator grille
6. Hold the original hand-held transmitter at or near the
centre of your car's radiator grille ⇒page 145, fig. 161.
7. Press the activator button on the original hand-held
transmitter.
8. As you do so, watch the turn signals on your vehicle.
HomeLink confirms successful programming by flashing
all four turn signals three times.
9. If the turn signals fail to flash three times, repeat the
procedure with the transmitter held at a different
distance from the radiator grille.
The proper distance between the hand-held transmitter and the
HomeLink module at the radiator grille depends on the system you
want to train. It may require several attempts.
The turn signals will flash once if the time limit for the programming
mode has been exceeded. In this case the programming procedure
needs to be performed again. Repeat the sequence at the operating
unit starting with step 3.
The programming instructions above also apply to the other control
buttons. Start with step 3 if you wish to proceed and program the
other two buttons.
If the garage door or other devices still fail to be activated with the
HomeLink control buttons after programming is completed, it is
possible that these systems might be working with a rolling code
instead of the normal fixed security code. If this is the case, a rolling
code programming is required in addition to the steps described
above. ⇒page 146Applies to vehicles: with HomeLinkRolling code programming
Some devices require rolling code programming of the
HomeLink universal transmitter.Identifying a rolling code
– Press the already programmed HomeLink button again
and hold it down.
–Watch HomeLink diode ⇒page 145, fig. 160. If the
diode starts flashing rapidly and turns into a constant
light after about 2 seconds, this indicates that the device
you wish to operate (e.g. a garage door opener) is
equipped with a rolling code.
– Program the rolling code as follows:
