Press the AUTO button, and the air conditioning system of the BMW 5 Series will enter full automatic mode. Simply use the knob to set the desired temperature twice, and the air conditioning will automatically adjust the fan speed and air circulation mode to achieve the set temperature inside the car. Here is some related information about the BMW 5 Series: 1. Introduction to the BMW 5 Series: The domestic 5 Series is a high-end sedan. The current generation of the 5 Series was introduced in 2004. Undoubtedly, the BMW 5 Series is one of the most outstanding series in automotive history, with its peak era beginning with the third-generation E34. Today's 5 Series is the third-generation product of the E34. 2. Development History of the BMW 5 Series: In 1972, BMW introduced the first-generation BMW 5 Series sedan, codenamed E12, at the IAA Motor Show. In 1973, BMW launched the BMW 525, equipped with a six-cylinder engine producing 145 horsepower.
I've been driving my 525 for almost two years now, and the air conditioning is actually quite smart. After starting the car, simply press the round button with the 'AUTO' logo on the center console, and the system will automatically adjust the fan speed. Temperature control is straightforward—just rotate the silver knob on the driver's side to set the temperature, and pressing it once displays the exact degree. If you want stronger airflow, tap the fan speed '+' button. In summer, I usually turn it to max for half a minute before lowering it. A key tip: in city traffic, always activate the button with the arrow pointing inside the car (recirculation mode) to avoid inhaling exhaust fumes. Turn it off on highways to save fuel. There’s also a MAX AC button on the AC panel for rapid cooling—super useful after the car’s been baking in the sun.
