How to Turn on the Heater in BAIC New Energy Vehicles?

Method to turn on the heater in BAIC New Energy Vehicles: Before turning on the heater, first activate the car's fan speed control switch, then select the temperature control switch and rotate it to the red zone. At this point, the heater will be activated. Before turning on the heater, it is essential to observe the engine's coolant temperature. If the engine's coolant temperature is too low, the heater will not function effectively; it will only work once the engine's coolant temperature rises. During the use of the heater, if the air feels too hot, you can adjust the position of the air vents. It is recommended to activate the external air circulation while using the heater to maintain air circulation inside the vehicle and prevent driving fatigue.
Turning on the heating in a BAIC New Energy vehicle is actually quite simple. First, you need to get into the car and start the engine, as many functions only respond after the power is on. Find the temperature adjustment knob or button on the central control screen or air conditioning panel, turn it to the red zone or set it above 25 degrees, and it will automatically start blowing warm air. I usually preheat the car for 10 minutes before heading out in winter, which doesn’t waste battery power—since electric vehicles don’t have an internal combustion heating system, they rely on electric heating elements. You can manually increase the fan speed by pressing the fan speed button, but don’t set it to the maximum, as it will drain the battery too quickly and affect the range. Remember to select the recirculation mode for faster heating. I drive an EU7 and often operate it this way; it feels warm and comfortable inside during winter. Plus, you can use the remote APP to turn it on in advance, which is incredibly convenient.
