Important notes on air condi-
tioning system
It is common for the windows to mist
over temporarily after the engine has
been started and with the air condi-
tioning system on.
When the air conditioning system is
running, moisture and condensate
produced by the evaporator is dis-
charged under the car and may leave
visible trails on the ground.
If the air conditioning system develops
any faults, for instance if no cool air is
delivered even when the controls are
set accordingly, switch it off and con-
sult BMW Service without delay.
Recirculated air mode
This is recommended if the
outside air is dusty or smells
objectionable. The air already
inside the car then passes through the
system repeatedly.
Although the air conditioning is
switched on automatically at the same
time to improve the quality of the air
(and dry it), you should not drive too
long with the system in the recircu-
lated-air mode.
b
If the windows fog over when
the recirculated-air mode is in use,
switch to fresh-air operation and run
the air conditioning by pressing
button 7.
c
Pushbutton for Automatic Recir-
culated Air Control (AUC)
Three functions are obtained
in succession by pressing this
button repeatedly, and confirmed by
LEDs.
Fresh-air operation: LEDs off.
Normal operation with fresh air from
outside the car.
AUC operation: left LED is on.
The system identifies peak pollutant
loads in the outside air and prevents
them from reaching the car's interior.
A sensor measures the level of pollut-
ants in the outside air. If the values
increase, the system switches over
automatically to recirculated-air oper-
ation.
Recirculated-air operation: the right
LED comes on.
b
If the windows mist over on the
inside when AUC or the recirculated-
air mode are in use, switch to fresh-air
operation (LEDs go out), start the air
conditioning with pushbutton 7 and if
necessary increase the airflow vol-
ume. Noises heard after the engine
has been switched off are caused by
the actuating motors returning the
ventilation flaps to their rest posi-
tions.
