Micro-filter and activated charcoal
filter
The micro-filter traps dust and pollen in the
incoming air. The activated charcoal filter in
addition removes gaseous pollutants from the
air entering the car. This combined filter is
changed by BMW Service during routine main-
tenance work.
You can call up further information on the con-
trol display, see page 74.
Independent ventilation
system*/auxiliary heater*
Principle
The independent ventilation system ventilates
the interior of the car and lowers its temperature
as necessary.
The auxiliary heater heats the interior, and it
facilitates removing snow and ice from the exte-
rior.
Two different switch-on times can be preset.
The systems can also be switched on/off using
the remote control. They remain switched on
for 30 minutes.
