After starting the vehicle, turn the key to the ST position until the idle speed stabilizes, then press the A/C air conditioning switch to turn it on, and press the interior circulation button to activate the circulation mode. Here is an introduction to the New Lavida: 1. Exterior: 16-inch dynamic aluminum alloy wheels, two-piece three-dimensional taillights, sharp and stylish side waistline, independent light source front headlights with a rock-solid double-wing design, crystal dynamic front fog lights, a new German-style bold front face, and a diamond-cut horizontal front grille. 2. Interior: Four-door premium welcome pedals, premium leather multifunction steering wheel, 3-way manual lumbar support for the driver's seat, a new T-shaped streamlined center console, sliding center armrest, dynamic texture speaker grilles, and foldable rear seats.
I always enjoy exploring these features while driving, and operating the air conditioning in the new Lavida is actually quite simple. After getting in the car, start the engine first so that the compressor can work—it's essential for cooling in summer. Locate the air conditioning panel on the center console to the right of the steering wheel. For models with automatic air conditioning, just press the AUTO button, and it will automatically adjust the fan speed and temperature. To adjust the temperature, turn the large knob with the temperature symbol—the blue zone is for cool air, and the red zone is for warm air. Manual air conditioning is more straightforward: turn on the fan switch, rotate the fan speed knob, and remember to press the AC button in summer to activate cooling. You can select the vent direction using the mode button nearby, choosing between face or foot vents. In traffic jams, press the recirculation button to avoid exhaust fumes entering the cabin. Before turning off the air conditioning, turn off the AC first and let the fan blow for a while to prevent musty odors from the evaporator.
I've got some experience with using the air conditioning. For the new Lavida, I recommend turning on the AC a few minutes after starting the car to reduce engine load. In summer, to cool down faster, first open the windows to let the hot air out before closing them and turning on the AC. I usually press the AUTO button and set it to 24°C, letting the system control the fan speed automatically. Manual adjustment works too—turn the temperature knob three notches toward the blue zone and set the fan to the second speed for sufficient cooling. In winter, you don't need to press the AC button for heating; just turn the temperature knob to the red zone for faster warm air. Remember to replace the cabin air filter regularly to prevent odors. Turn off the AC two to three minutes before parking and use the natural air to dry the vents, which helps avoid musty smells. The air recirculation button is at the bottom left—use the fresh air mode on highways for better ventilation.
