How to Turn on the Air Conditioner in Changan Eado?
4 Answers
To turn on the air conditioner in Changan Eado, press the AC button on the center console. Rotate the AC knob to adjust the interior temperature—clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease. The Changan Eado measures 4620mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1490mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2660mm, offering a spacious cabin and practical storage space. Powering the Eado are two efficient engines: a 1.6L naturally aspirated and a 1.5T turbocharged direct-injection engine, both featuring DVVT/IVVT technology, known for their 'power, cleanliness, and quietness' advantages.
I've been driving the Eado for three years, and the air conditioning controls are super simple. After starting the car, just find the button with the snowflake icon on the left side of the center console - press it and the AC light comes on to activate cooling. Use the two large knobs in the middle for adjustments: the left one controls temperature, the right one adjusts fan speed. In summer, turn the temperature knob toward the blue zone for cooling; in winter, turn it toward the red zone for heating. Remember to press the fan-shaped icon button when the windshield fogs up - the automatic defogging works really fast. If you use the automatic AC, it's even more convenient - just press the AUTO button and it adjusts both fan speed and temperature automatically. I usually don't even bother with the knobs.
Last time I drove my relative's Yidong, I noticed the air conditioning panel design was quite intuitive. After ignition, on the center console near the passenger side, there's a prominent AC button - press it once and the indicator turns green to activate the compressor. The dual-zone AC allows separate adjustment, with digital temperature display when adjusting the driver's side. If manual operation seems troublesome, simply press the AUTO button for automatic mode where vents switch automatically and the system can adjust airflow based on sunlight intensity. A handy tip: When using AC, opening windows briefly for ventilation before activating AC saves fuel. On rainy days, use the defogger button to prevent window fogging.
The Yidong's air conditioning panel is mainly divided into three sections: the left side is the temperature adjustment area, the middle features a fan speed knob with an indicator light, and the right side houses the function buttons. After starting the vehicle, simply rotate the fan speed knob to activate the air conditioning system; turning it clockwise increases the fan speed. The cooling switch is an independent button, and the compressor only engages when the AC button is pressed. For heating, there's no need to press AC—just turn up the temperature and wait for the engine to warm up for hot air. Models equipped with a screen can display real-time temperature. Note that the MAX button is for rapid cooling and defogging; avoid accidental presses to prevent excessive wind noise.
