How to Use the Air Conditioning in a 2018 Volkswagen Sagitar?
2 Answers
The air conditioning control area of the Sagitar is located below the center console. Activating the AUTO mode will allow the air conditioning system to automatically adjust the blower speed and airflow distribution. Below is a detailed introduction to each button of the Sagitar's air conditioning system: 1. A/C Button: Compressor switch. After activation, the compressor starts cooling. 2. FRONT Button: Front window defroster switch. When turned on, the air outlet blows air towards the front windshield. 3. REAR Button: Rear window defroster switch. When turned on, the rear windshield heating wire is activated. 4. Use of Internal and External Circulation: When driving in heavily polluted weather, be sure to switch to internal circulation mode.
I commute to work in my 2018 Sagitar, and the air conditioning works like a charm. After starting the car, I usually just press the AUTO button, and the system intelligently adjusts the fan speed and temperature to a comfortable level. If I want to fine-tune it, I simply turn the temperature knob on the center console—I typically set it to around 22°C. The fan speed button allows manual adjustment even in auto mode. Especially in summer, I crank it up high at first to blow away the hot air before lowering it. There’s also an air recirculation button: I use the inner loop on hot days to keep hot air out and save fuel, and switch to the outer loop on rainy days or when there are many passengers to prevent fogging and maintain visibility. The same goes for winter—the warm air kicks in automatically and keeps things cozy. Overall, the system is thoughtfully designed, making every operation feel like having a little assistant, ensuring safety and ease, so even long drives don’t feel tiring.
