Parked Car Ventilation




PARKED CAR VENTILATION







Parked car ventilation (it equipped) operates at pre-programmed times, the IHKA control module:

- Opens the fresh air flaps, face vent flaps, and
- Closes all other flaps, and
- Operates the blower motor at low speed for one-half hour

Using the E38 as an example:

- All switching is controlled directly by the IHKA control panel
- Desired ventilation "ON" times are programmed into the IKE On-Board Computer (BC) using the Multi-Information Display (MID)
- The BC in the IKE then communicates with the IHKA module over the I-Bus and the K-Bus
