Hi all,
I have just taken delivery of my Long Range IM5 in Rembrandt Grey.
A lovely car and worth the wait. Initially I wanted black but did change my mind and am so pleased with the choice. Of course a few very poor pictures - it's pretty gloomy here in Poole already.
A couple of points.
Firstly can someone tell me how to reach the A/C control interface (as attached) and also how does one adjust the distribution of air - perhaps in the above mnetioned page.

Having been having a good old 'play' with everything and taking these pretty poor pix, I know one thing that attracted me to the IM5. Up until now my favourite style of car has been the 2000s edition of Maserati 4200 (and I consider myself fortunate to have owned one for close on 20 years). Does anyone else see the styling similarity? Again - see attached.
At this stage I would like to thank all contributors who have joined me in a few conversations - this clearly is a great forum. I hope I may contribute a bit to it.
Actually for anyone still awaiting their cars, to me it seems that if 'made-to-order' the wait is around 10 weeks. Maybe some are lucky and have it far less, but from reading comments so far, that would appear about right.

Just touch the temp display and it will take you to AC control. There other ways but that IMHO is the simplest. I just set mine to auto so never tried to alter the distribution.
 
Yes, the air flow is a bit odd - no moveable bits on the air vents. You have to use the touch screen to alter them but tbh I just leave them away from my face & on auto. The car heats up pretty quickly & so do the seats & steering wheel - all of which you can do via the app - neat. I'm impressed with the acceleration & solid, sure-footed drive. It's soooo quiet. Enjoy
 
Mike JS and KR, thanks so much. I thought it had to be simple but found it was my mind that was 'simple'!!!!! I knew it had to be pretty straightforward. I tried running through the on-board manual and then referred to a printed manual I bought on-line. But that is hard to read but better than nothing. As an 'oldie' with a lack of tech know-how I sometimes need a bit of help.
