How to Turn Off the Air Conditioning in a Volkswagen Passat?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Passat's method to turn off the air conditioning depends on the type of air conditioning system: 1. Manual air conditioning: After turning on the fan, press the AC switch and adjust the temperature to a suitable position; 2. Automatic air conditioning: Press the AUTO button for the air conditioning to work automatically, then turn on the fan, press the AC switch, and adjust the temperature to a suitable position. The Volkswagen Passat is a mid-size car under SAIC Volkswagen. Taking the 2020 Volkswagen Passat modified business version as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4933mm, width 1836mm, height 1469mm, wheelbase 2871mm, fuel tank capacity 68.5l, and trunk capacity 521l.
I've been driving my Volkswagen Passat for almost 5 years, and turning off the AC is quite simple. Usually on the AC control panel at the lower left of the steering wheel, find that round or square knob, just turn it to the left to reduce the airflow, or press the A/C button to turn it off. If it's in automatic AC mode, first press the AUTO button to exit the automatic state, then adjust the airflow or turn off the A/C. Sometimes when it's hot, I also turn it off before parking in advance, which can reduce engine load, save some fuel and extend the lifespan of parts. Remember, don't rush to fiddle with it on the highway, find a safe section before operating. It's recommended to replace the AC filter once a year to prevent dust buildup from affecting post-shutdown air circulation inside the car, making it more comfortable to open windows.
