How to Turn on the Air Conditioning in a Buick Business Vehicle?
2 Answers
Buick business vehicles come with manual air conditioning. The adjustment knobs are located in the central control area, with the red zone for warm air temperature adjustment and the blue zone for cold air temperature adjustment. The newer Buick business models are equipped with automatic air conditioning, where you simply set the desired temperature. Here are some recommendations for using the car air conditioning: 1. It is advised not to turn on the heating air conditioning immediately when warming up the car in the morning. Wait until the engine coolant temperature rises before turning on the air conditioning. Avoid setting the temperature too high, as it can cause drowsiness during long drives. 2. If the airflow from the vents is weak, check if the air filter is dirty. After prolonged use of the recirculation mode, it is recommended to switch to fresh air mode or open the windows for ventilation. 3. After using the air conditioning for cooling, do not turn it off immediately. Instead, set the blower to maximum to dry out the moisture in the air conditioning pipes, which also helps prevent bacterial growth in the air filter.
Operating the air conditioning in a Buick business vehicle is quite simple. After getting into the car, start the engine first, locate the AC switch on the control panel, and simply press the AUTO button. At this point, the air conditioning will automatically adjust the fan speed based on the temperature sensor. If the temperature feels unsuitable, you can turn the temperature knob—I usually set it to 22°C in summer. To manually adjust the airflow, use the fan control knob: turn it up to increase the airflow and down to decrease it. If you're traveling with children, remember to turn on the rear AC vents. Use the external circulation mode on highways and switch to internal circulation in city traffic jams to keep the air fresher. After use, remember to turn off the AC button before shutting off the engine to prevent mold. The automatic AC is truly hassle-free—like my Buick GL8, which cools down exceptionally fast.
