How to Turn on the Cold Air in a 7th Generation Honda Accord?
2 Answers
To turn on the cold air in a 7th Generation Accord, simply press the A/C button. Below are additional details about the 7th Generation Accord's air conditioning controls: 1. The left and right sides respectively adjust the temperature for the driver and passenger seats, with blue indicating cold air and red representing hot air. 2. Adjust both sides to the lowest blue zone. 3. The A/C button is the air conditioning switch. 4. To the left of the A/C button is the fan speed control; adjust it to your preferred level. Additional information on air conditioning cooling principles: 1. When the air conditioner is powered on, the compressor draws in low-pressure refrigerant vapor and compresses it into high-pressure vapor, which is then discharged to the condenser. 2. The axial fan draws in outdoor air, which flows through the condenser, absorbing the heat released by the refrigerant and causing the high-pressure refrigerant vapor to condense into high-pressure liquid. 3. The outdoor air undergoes heat exchange, turning the refrigerant into a medium-temperature, medium-pressure liquid. It then passes through the capillary tube, where it undergoes throttling to reduce pressure and temperature before entering the evaporator. There, it evaporates under the corresponding low pressure, absorbing heat from the surrounding environment.
I've been driving a seventh-generation Honda Accord for several years. When I start the engine and want to blow cold air, I simply turn the temperature knob on the center console all the way to the left, into the blue zone, which sets the temperature to the lowest. Then I press the AC button, which usually lights up to indicate the air conditioning compressor is activated, and now the cold air comes out. Don't forget to use the adjacent knob to adjust the fan speed to your desired level. On particularly hot days, I first turn on the external circulation to let the hot air out, wait a few minutes, and then switch to internal circulation for more even cooling inside the car. Once the car is moving, the fan speed will adjust automatically if set to auto mode, but manual adjustment gives a better sense of control. Using the air conditioning at the lowest temperature for extended periods may put a strain on the system, so it's advisable to occasionally adjust it to the medium blue zone. This prevents the compressor from running at high load continuously, helping to extend its lifespan and save fuel.
