Ventilation
Setting
The air flow directions can be individually
adjusted:
– Direct ventilation:
The air flow is directly pointed onto the
person. The air flow heats or cools no-
ticeably, depending on the adjusted tem-
perature.
– Indirect ventilation:
If the vents are fully or partly closed, the
air is directly routed into the car's inte-
rior.
Front ventilation
– Turn knob for continuous opening and
closing of the vents.
– Swivel the vents to alter the direction of
the vent flow, arrows.

Parked-car ventilation
Concept
The parked-car ventilation ventilates the
car's interior and lowers its temperature, if
needed.
General information
The parked-car ventilation can be switched
on and off directly or by using two preset
activation times. The system remains
switched on for 30 minutes.
The parked-car ventilation system is oper-
ated via the Central Information Display
(CID).
Functional requirements
– Direct operation: vehicle is in radio-
ready state.
– Direct operation or preset activation
time: does not depend on external tem-
perature.
– Battery is sufficiently charged.
If parked-car ventilation is switched on,
the vehicle battery will be discharged.
Thus, limit the maximum activation time
to save the vehicle battery. The system
will be available again after the engine
is started or after a short trip.
– Make sure that the vehicle's date and
time are set correctly.
– Open the vents to allow air to flow out.
Switching on/off directly
