Aux. Ventilation

Post by alex1985blue » Tue Feb 15, 2011 7:24 pm

Hehy Guys,

Ive just been playing around with the car trying to figure out how it all wors and connecting my phone upto it and I have noticed on my Menu I have an option called Aux. Ventilation

Does anyone have any ideas what it is? If you go into it, it has options where you can set different times.

Does anyone else have this?

My car is a 4.4 V8

Cheers

Alex

Set a time to start the ventilation fan. Helps cool the car at the pre set time, ready for your return on a hot day.

Can it work the other way and heat the car?

Yes if you have the Webasto heater fitted. It would be an option on the V8. See image.
