How to Use the Air Conditioning Cooling in the 8th Generation Accord
2 Answers
Press the knob on the right to turn on the air conditioning, and turn it to the right to increase the fan speed. Turning the right knob towards the blue zone activates cold air, while turning it towards the red zone activates warm air. This adjusts the air outlet mode (directing air towards the upper body, both upper body and feet, feet only, or feet and front windshield). Activates the front windshield heating.
Before starting the car, you need to understand the air conditioning cooling of the 8th-generation Accord. I've been driving this car for over ten years, and experience tells me: once you get in and start the engine, simply press the prominent AUTO button on the center console, and the system will automatically begin cooling. Rotate the temperature adjustment knob to set your preferred low temperature—I usually set it around 22°C in summer, which feels most comfortable. The fan speed adjusts automatically, but if you want stronger cooling, manually increase the fan speed. Don’t forget to switch between recirculation and fresh air modes: recirculation cools the cabin faster, while fresh air keeps it ventilated and avoids stuffiness. Change the cabin air filter every six months to prevent clogging and maintain cooling efficiency. Simple to use and well-maintained, the AC performs efficiently even on long summer drives, keeping you cool throughout.
