How to Turn on the Heater in a Nissan Sylphy?
2 Answers
The method to turn on the heater in a Nissan Sylphy is as follows: 1. Press the knob with red and blue color buttons; 2. Wait for 5 to 10 minutes after ignition; 3. When the water temperature rises to the normal level, you can turn on the heater. Precautions for using the heater: 1. Wait for 8 to 15 minutes after the car starts until the water temperature reaches the normal level before turning on the heater; 2. Adjust the air conditioning circulation mode to internal circulation and set it to the heater mode, which is the red zone; 3. Do not turn on the air conditioning. The heater utilizes the car's own heat cycle to save energy. Adjust the fan speed and set the air conditioning to a suitable level to direct the airflow; 4. When parking for a long time, turn off the heater in time or roll down the window slightly to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
As a Sylphy owner who has studied its AC system, let me tell you that turning on the heater is simple: First start the engine and wait for the coolant temperature to rise slightly, since the heating relies on engine heat. Then locate the temperature knob on the center console – it typically has red (warm) and blue (cool) ends – just turn the knob toward the red side to a higher setting, like above 25°C. If you want quicker heating, adjust the fan speed knob from low to high as preferred. For automatic AC versions, it's even easier – just press the AUTO button and the system will automatically regulate temperature and airflow; manual adjustment is needed for non-AUTO versions. When using the heater, remember to set the vent direction, such as toward footwells or windshield defrosting. Avoid pressing the A/C button in winter as it increases fuel consumption. Regularly check the cabin air filter to prevent clogging that might affect heating efficiency. Overall it takes just minutes – the Sylphy's heating system is quite reliable.
