How to Turn on the Heating in BYD S6?
2 Answers
To turn on the heating in a BYD S6, rotate the temperature control knob to the red zone and then turn on the fan speed switch. Taking the 2014 BYD S6 Manual Flagship model as an example, it is a mid-size SUV with body dimensions of 4810mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1725mm in height, a wheelbase of 2720mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 72 liters. The 2014 BYD S6 Manual Flagship is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 113 kW at 5200 rpm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
As someone who has driven many cars, I would say that after starting the BYD S6, let it run for a few minutes until the engine coolant temperature rises and the temperature gauge reaches the normal position before the warm air starts blowing. Then locate the air conditioning control panel, typically by turning the temperature knob to the fully red zone (maximum heat), and adjust the fan speed to medium or higher—the air will then become warm. Remember to turn off the AC button to save fuel, as the warm air relies on waste heat from the engine and doesn’t consume the compressor. It’s best to preheat the car in winter before driving; otherwise, the air will be too cold to be effective. Also, pay attention to the direction of the air vents—for example, pointing them toward the feet or blowing directly feels more comfortable, but avoid aiming them at your face to prevent dryness. Regularly check the coolant level to avoid shortages that could affect heating efficiency. Maintaining good habits can make the car more durable.
