HVAC on E46

It took me about 8 month of reading the manual (and watching the instruction DVD many many times) to finally figure out the A/C logic on my E46.

Basically, it is a German thing, when they say Air-Conditioning they don't mean cooling things off. (which, incedentally, is what majority of the earth population things the A/C stands for).
They literally mean "conditioning" of the air. At any given time it's a good guess whether the air
is going to be cooled off, heated or otherwise "conditioned".
To make things more interesting, there is no way to switch the "climate" control in the car in less than "4 easy steps". Actually, the number of steps varies, it's a factor of the temperature inside
the cabin.

Now, if I only could figure out how to get the passenger side mirror to function again, I will be a happier man.
