Which button is for heating in the Envision's air conditioning?

Buick Envision's steering wheel heating button is located in the left-hand control area of the multifunction steering wheel, specifically the lower button of the circular button group. Method to turn on the heating: After starting the Buick Envision, wait approximately 5-10 minutes for the water temperature to reach normal operating temperature. At this point, you can activate the Envision's heating system. First, adjust the air conditioning circulation mode to internal circulation. Once set to internal circulation, the temperature inside the vehicle will gradually increase. Then switch to heating mode by pressing the button with the red arrow. The more times you press this button, the higher the interior temperature will become. Important notes for heating operation: Do not turn on the Buick Envision's air conditioning system when using heating, as the warm air utilizes the vehicle's own heat cycle to conserve energy. Activating the AC will increase fuel consumption and reduce engine power.
When driving my Buick Envision, I noticed there isn't a dedicated heating button. Instead, temperature adjustment is mainly done through the temperature control knob. This knob is located on the center console, typically a circular button with markings, and turning it clockwise increases the temperature setting. The AC system automatically provides heating by utilizing engine heat. For models with automatic climate control, simply press the AUTO button - it intelligently adjusts based on cabin temperature without needing manual heating activation. With manual AC systems, you may need to switch to heat mode. It's quite convenient in winter - I recommend letting the engine warm up for a few minutes after starting the car for faster heating. A quick tip: if the air doesn't feel warm enough, check your coolant level as insufficient coolant can affect system performance.
