82n
Air conditioningDraft-free ventilationYou can adjust the blower controls for
the upper body area to obtain the
optimum airflow rates and directions for
your personal requirements:
1 Rotary dials for infinitely-variable
opening and closing of the vent
outlets
2 Selector levers for airflow direction
3 Rotary dial 3 allows you to control the
temperature of the airflow from these
outlets as desired.
MicrofilterThe built-in microfilter removes dust
and pollen from the incoming air. Your
BMW center will replace it during
routine maintenance. A substantial
reduction in airflow indicates that the
filter needs to be replaced before
scheduled maintenance.
To defrost windows and remove
condensation1 Set the blower speed rotary control
for the airflow rate to position 4
2 Turn the rotary temperature control
completely to the right (red)
3 Rotary control for air distribution to
position

Microfilter/activated-charcoal
filterThe built-in microfilter removes dust
and pollen from the incoming air. The
activated-charcoal filter provides addi-
tional protection by filtering gaseous
pollutants from the outside air. Your
BMW center replaces this combined
filter as a standard part of your sched-
uled maintenance. A substantial reduc-
tion in airflow indicates that the filter
needs to be replaced before scheduled
maintenance.
To activate, press the button briefly
with ignition key in position 1 or 2.
The illustration depicts the arrangement
of the buttons if the vehicle is fully
equipped. The arrangement may vary,
depending on the equipment actually
installed.
Harman kardon premium sound
systemPress the button to activate and deacti-
vate the acoustic enhancement.
The system creates the acoustic
impression of a much larger passenger
compartment accompanied by
improved stereophonic sound at all
seating positions.
The system responds to poor reception
conditions by repeatedly alternating
between the stereo and monophonic
modes. You should then switch the
system off.
