Vents - for feet and face

Wondering if this is normal or not. I like to have AC blowing on my feet and face at the same time. The "Zone'" button, which toggles the options, does not give me a setting that does feet and face forward together.
Wondering what other MY2016 E63 owners expeireience is.

MY 2010 E550 had a setting that had feet and face blowing together. Finding it strange that my 2016 E63 doesn;t

Interesting, my console is different.

Perhaps difference with USA and Cdn vehicles. I can either get feet alone, or feet with defrost. I have Cdn vehicle

My 2014 is the same -- cannot get feet and dash vents at the same time. I bought the car new and it has driven me nuts that this is not possible on a car like this. Looks like it may be different for US cars.

I believe feet and defrost are the only options as they are typically used for heat in the winter and face is typically A/C in summer.

I can definitely do feet and face at the same time (2014). So maybe it's only for US cars? Such an odd thing to restrict...

I wonder if this can be changed with some sort of coding or programing?
