How to Turn on the Heating Function of the Tiguan's Air Conditioning?
2 Answers
Tiguan's air conditioning heating function can be turned on by following these steps: 1. Start the vehicle engine using the one-touch start button and wait for the engine coolant temperature to rise before turning on the air conditioning; 2. Locate the central control panel and press the AC button to activate the air conditioning system; 3. Use the central fan speed knob to increase the air conditioning fan speed by turning it clockwise; 4. Use the temperature knobs on both sides to raise the air conditioning temperature by rotating them clockwise. The Tiguan has dimensions of 4506mm in length, 1809mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2684mm. Its intake form is turbocharged. The vehicle has a maximum horsepower of 160ps, a maximum torque of 250nm, a 6-speed automatic transmission, a body type of 5-door 5-seat SUV, and a top speed of 190 kilometers per hour.
Having driven for many years, I find the Tiguan's heating system straightforward: First, start the vehicle and let the engine warm up for a few minutes (the heating effect is poor when the engine is cold). Then, locate the air conditioning control area on the center console, turn the temperature knob to the red zone, such as above 24°C, and warm air will come out. Remember to turn off the AC button, as it's specifically for cooling—keeping it on consumes energy without providing heat. Increasing the fan speed can accelerate the flow of warm air; choose the direction towards the front window or footwell for defrosting and warmth. In winter, use the external circulation more often to bring in fresh warm air, avoiding stuffiness and dizziness. Also, regularly check the cabin air filter and cooling system to ensure efficient operation, preventing blockages or odors from affecting comfort. On long drives, set a comfortable temperature to maintain safe driving.
