How to adjust the air conditioning for cooling in a Toyota Levin car?

[GiannaLee]

Press the A/C button located at the lower right corner of the center console screen to turn on the air conditioning, then rotate the right circular knob to the blue zone. The car will start cooling. Here are some related information: 1. The car air conditioning has both cooling and heating systems. The heating system utilizes the car's own heat cycle and does not require the compressor to work. The A/C button activates the air conditioning cooling function, and pressing it means the compressor starts working, which will increase fuel consumption. 2. Choose an appropriate temperature when using the car air conditioning. Setting the temperature too low can affect your health, so it's important to adjust the temperature properly. Normally, the temperature inside the car should be 5°C–6°C different from the outside temperature. 3. Try not to use the air conditioning when driving at low speeds. If you encounter traffic congestion, avoid increasing the engine speed to enhance the air conditioning efficiency, as this can negatively impact the lifespan of both the engine and the air conditioning compressor. 4. Do not turn off the engine before turning off the air conditioning. Some car owners often remember to turn off the air conditioning only after turning off the engine, which is harmful to the engine. This is because the next time the car starts, the engine will have to bear the load of the air conditioning, and such a high load can damage the engine.

Start my Toyota Levin, after the engine is running, head straight to the air conditioning control panel and press the most prominent AUTO button. The system will automatically begin cooling. Then, use the temperature knob to adjust the scale towards the cooler side, such as between 18-22 degrees. Once set, the system will intelligently regulate the compressor, airflow, and blend door to achieve optimal cooling. If you want to manually adjust the fan speed, simply press the airflow adjustment button to increase or decrease the wind power. Don’t forget to switch between recirculation and fresh air modes—use recirculation for faster cooling when you first get in the car, then switch to fresh air after driving for a while to ventilate better. A tip: on extremely hot days, open the windows for a while to let out the hot air before turning on the AC. Avoid frequently turning the AC on and off while driving to prevent overloading the system. Regularly check the cabin air filter to ensure it’s not clogged with dust, as this can reduce cooling efficiency—this is a simple task you can handle yourself. In short, it’s easy to use, and adopting these habits will extend your AC’s lifespan.

As an experienced driver, I know a thing or two about using the air conditioning in a Toyota Levin. After starting the vehicle, lightly press the AUTO button, and it will automatically activate the compressor based on the in-car sensors. You just need to turn the temperature adjustment knob to set your desired temperature, such as around 20°C in summer. The system controls the air vents and airflow distribution in the background, ensuring steady cooling. If the cooling isn’t ideal, don’t just adjust the settings—check if the filter is dirty. It’s recommended to replace it every six months to avoid blocked air inlets affecting cooling efficiency. A normal compressor engagement sound means the AC is working fine, but if there’s a strange odor or unstable airflow, get it checked immediately—it could be a refrigerant leak. Use the recirculation mode for quick cooling initially, then switch to fresh air mode for ventilation. This saves fuel and ensures safety. Spending a little on regular AC maintenance can save you a lot of hassle later.

I just started driving the Toyota Levin and found the air conditioning cooling operation incredibly simple. First, start the car, then press the AUTO button on the center console, turn the knob slightly towards the lower temperature, and cool air starts blowing out. The fan speed is usually automatically controlled by the system, but if it's not strong enough, just press the fan speed button to increase it. You can also set the internal or external circulation on the screen—switch to internal circulation during traffic jams to avoid inhaling exhaust fumes. Remember, don't immediately close the windows and turn on the AC when you start driving; opening the windows for a while helps dissipate heat faster. The whole process is just a press and a turn, no brainer.
