Auxiliary Ventilation!

[mikikuki7]

So, today was in the 50s and I was messing with the BMW while in class. What I noticed, was weird. I saw a new tab, a fan tab.

I pressed it and asked me to set the time and ventilation. Attached is a pic.


Is it possible that it was warming the interior when sent? When I got into my X5 I saw curved flowing air arrows in the ventilation system... Any thoughts?


I noticed warm air coming out, just don't know if it was because I drove it 2 hours prior to parking it outside.


Thanks!

Here is another pic of the departure time, when I tap it....

This is the same function that is on your I drive system to set a departure time for air circulation. It now allows you to activate it remotely either in demand or via a specified time. U detest and all this does is start air circulating in the cabin. It doesn't heat or cool the car. It is good on a hot summer day to help the car cool down a little before you arrive.

This app update unfortunately also came with the removal of the list view on Google search for navigation destinations. This was a major disappointment as it was the best part of the whole app.

I actually called bmw na and it seems they added this function back in the past week.

I just noticed that the windows got foggy. Sucks that they just couldn't add like a electrical heater. Thanks for the help!
