BMW 5 Series: Operating strategy of the heat management module
The following graphic shows the positions of the rotary valve as the coolant
temperature increases.

The openings on the rotary valve vary the cross-sections of the different
coolant ducts as a function
of the rotational angle of the rotary valve. The following graphics
schematically represent the various
engine operation phases, from cold start to maximum cooling requirement.

incorrect or delayed warnings
may occur and consequently Evasion Aid is limited in its operation. It is also
possible that the following
