2 Answers
Steps to turn on the heater in a BMW: 1. Start the car; 2. Turn off the AC; 3. Wait for the water temperature to rise to normal operating temperature; 4. Rotate the knob to the red zone to activate the heating mode. Taking the BMW Mini as an example: It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 252ps, maximum torque of 350nm, maximum power of 185kw, power band between 5200-6500rpm, and torque range from 1480-4800rpm. The BMW Mini has dimensions of 3729mm in length, 1683mm in width, and 1407mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2467mm.
As a long-time BMW owner, here are some practical tips for using the heater. After starting the engine, simply turn the temperature knob with the red marking on the center console (usually located on the right side of the AC panel) clockwise to increase the temperature. The button next to the fan speed control marked with a windshield icon is the defroster button, which is particularly useful in winter. For models with automatic climate control, just press the AUTO button and adjust the temperature knob – the system will automatically regulate the fan speed. Remember to turn off the AC cooling button (snowflake icon) to save fuel, but activate the dehumidification function when windows fog up. For dual-zone climate control, the passenger seat can set individual temperatures. It's recommended to warm up the engine for 30 seconds before turning on the heater to avoid blowing cold air.
