It should stay with the vehicle when sold to provide the next owner with important operating, safety and maintenance information. [. . . ] Even when sensors are involved, there is a blind spot in which objects cannot be detected. Moreover, the detection of obstructions can approach the physical limits of ultrasonic measurement, as occurs e. in the case of thin and wedge-shaped objects. Certain sources of sound, such as a loud radio, could drown out the PDC signal tone. < Keep the sensors clean and free of ice or snow in order to ensure that they will continue to operate effectively. Do not apply high pressure spray to the sensors for a prolonged period of time. Always maintain a distance of more than 4 in (10 cm). < OVERVIEW Acoustical signals The distance to the nearest object is indicated by a tone sounding at various intervals. As the distance between vehicle and object decreases, the intervals between the tones become shorter. A continuous tone indicates the presence of an object less than 9 in (20 cm) away. The warning signal is canceled after approx. three seconds if the distance to the obstacle remains constant during this time (if you are moving parallel to a wall, for instance).

The air is cooled and dehumidified and ­ depending on the temperature setting ­ rewarmed. After the engine start, the windshield can fog over briefly. Condensation forms in the air conditioner system during operation, and then exits under the vehicle. Traces of condensed water under the vehicle are therefore normal. < OVERVIEW Air distribution in upper body region , upper body region and footwell , footwell , footwell and windows and windows . All intermediate positions are possible, see illustration and overview on page 64. Indicator lamp goes out. The heating continues to run with reduced power output and then switches itself off automatically. Supply of outside air into the vehicle is blocked: indicator lamp lights up. The air within the vehicle is recirculated. Do not run the recirculated-air mode for longer than approx. 30 minutes, as otherwise the air quality in the interior < will deteriorate. < If the windows fog over in the recirculated-air mode, switch the recirculated-air mode off and increase the air < supply as required. < Online Edition for Part No. 01 41 0 156 724 - © 01/02 BMW AG 65 INDEX DATA REPAIRS Indicator lamp goes out.
