How to Turn on the Warm Air in the Tiguan L
2 Answers
The method to turn on the warm air in the Tiguan L is as follows: 1. First, press the one-touch start button in the vehicle to start the engine. After about 8-15 minutes, when the water temperature rises to the normal level (i.e., when the water temperature gauge reaches the middle), locate the air conditioning switch in the vehicle's cabin. 2. Adjust the air circulation mode to internal circulation, then turn the air conditioning knob to the warm air mode. Some vehicles use a red zone to indicate this, while others use a sun symbol. 3. Finally, press the AC button to turn off the air conditioning cooling function, which will activate the warm air.
I've been driving the Tiguan L for almost two years, and turning on the heater is super easy: First, start the engine, then rotate the temperature knob on the center console to the red zone or set the temperature above 25°C (in winter, it's recommended to set it around 28°C). If the car hasn't warmed up yet, cold air will come out, so wait a few minutes until the engine coolant temperature gauge reaches the middle before turning it on. At this point, press the fan speed button on the AC panel to increase the airflow, or simply press the AUTO button to let the system adjust automatically, and the air will become warm. Don't forget to switch to recirculation mode to warm up the car faster and prevent window fogging that blocks visibility. During regular maintenance, I always clean the AC filter, which improves heating efficiency and saves fuel. In summer, just turn the temperature knob to the blue zone for cold air—switching between the two is quite convenient. Once you get used to it, controlling the climate becomes effortless.
