Heat at rest is using the residual engine heat during cold weather while the car is parked.
Or, is it the same function?
Itīs not the same function, Parked Car Ventilation just blows outside air into the car vs. Residual Heat uses left over heat from the engine. Residual Heat is a great function for when stopping for a few minutes. I had a 2014 520xd as a loaner when waiting for my X3, Residual Heat worked just like describe in the manual for both cars.
