Are you guys absolutely sure that it is only moving air and not providing some cooling as well?
I have used the Independent Ventilation option on some murderously hot days where the air temp. feels extremely high, and yet I have found the car interior to be noticably cooler than one would expect simply from shifting air.

Since I picked up the manual at the dealer I have studied it really hard.. I cannot find anything about automatic ventilation besides what they tell about the option of interior preheating....
Where in the I-Drive can you find the settings so I can look it up in my manual???

Yes, Yes, Yes. You need to be in key position 1 and you can check whatever box you want and it works. Thanks Guys for the info!

This feature has bugged me a little bit. I always fear if I enable the automatic mode it'll drain my battery especially if the car is not used for a long time.
Is the system smart enough not to drain/kill itself?
