Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
The microfilter traps dust and pollen in the
incoming air. The activated-charcoal filter pro-
vides additional protecti on by filtering gaseous
pollutants from the outs ide air. Your BMW cen-

Parked car ventilation
The concept
The parked car ventilation provides ventilation
to the passenger compartment and lowers its
temperature, if necessary.
For any outside temperatur e, the system can be
switched on or off directly or via a preset
switch-on time. It will remain on for 30 minutes.
Due to its high power consumption, the parked
car ventilation system sh ould not be switched
on twice in a row without driving in between to
allow the battery to recharge.
Open the vents so that air can flow out.
They can be operated via iDrive.
