How to turn on the cold air in the 2021 Bora?

[DerekAnn]

The air conditioning control area for the Volkswagen Bora is located in the middle of the center console. Press the A/C button in the air conditioning control area to turn on the air conditioning compressor for cooling, and cold air will be emitted once it is activated. Press the OFF button to turn off the air conditioning, and the indicator light will illuminate. When the indicator light below OFF turns off, it indicates that the air conditioning is on. Notes for using the air conditioning: 1. Open the windows to dissipate heat after exposure to the sun: Improper use of the air conditioning can lead to physical discomfort. For a car exposed to the sun outdoors, the interior temperature can reach 50°C. 2. Alternate between internal and external circulation when using the air conditioning: Air conditioning systems generally have an internal/external circulation switch. When external circulation is selected, the air conditioning draws air from outside the car, while internal circulation recirculates the air inside the car.

I've driven quite a few cars, including the 2021 Bora, and operating the cold air is quite intuitive. After starting the car, locate the air conditioning panel on the center console. Usually, pressing the AUTO button once will automatically activate the system. Then, turn the temperature knob downward to lower the number, say to 18 or 20 degrees, and the cold air will come out. The fan speed will also adjust automatically, but you can manually adjust it using the fan speed buttons. Before driving in summer, it's best to start the engine for a minute before turning on the air conditioning. Don't set the temperature too low; around 22 degrees is most comfortable and won't put stress on your body. Regularly cleaning the filter can maintain air quality and cooling efficiency. Use the recirculation mode for quick cooling and the fresh air mode to bring in fresh air, keeping the car environment healthy. Don't forget to check the air conditioning performance. If it doesn't feel cool enough, the filter might be dirty or there might be insufficient refrigerant, so address these issues promptly to avoid problems.

As a car enthusiast, I find the air conditioning system design of the 2021 Bora quite clever. After starting the engine, pressing the AUTO button activates the automatic air conditioning function. Turning the temperature knob counterclockwise to the cool zone engages the compressor to blow cold air. If AUTO doesn't respond, manually pressing the AC button ensures cooling, while the fan speed buttons allow adjustment of airflow intensity. I usually set it at 20°C to avoid energy waste - temperatures too high or low both affect efficiency. The MAX AC mode can quickly cool the interior, but shouldn't be used for extended periods to prevent engine strain. Understanding these control details makes driving smoother. By the way, regularly changing the cabin air filter prevents odors, keeping the cooling system efficient and environmentally friendly.

When I first learned to drive, I was also curious about how to turn on the cold air. In the 2021 Bora, after starting the car, locate the air conditioning control area. There's a temperature knob—turning it left or downward to decrease the displayed number activates the cold air. Press the fan button to adjust the airflow, starting from the low setting. Don't worry about complexity; once you set the temperature low, the cold air will come out automatically. It's just a few simple steps to get it done. Waiting two minutes before driving makes it more effective. Setting the temperature around 20 degrees is comfortable and hassle-free. You'll get the hang of it after a few tries.
