Whats best auto bottom on/off
« on: December 22, 2012, 07:40:16 pm »
Car misting up allot lately due to the damp weather, usual bang on the air con to get of it, do you then press the auto button to keep it clear? Noticed some noises when audio button on and when econ bottom off, noise goes when econ button pressed on so what's this noise?

Buy some silica packs from Safe Store or Big Yellow Storage and leave in the various places in your car. Wont cure the mositure issue but will certainly help.

I always leave the aircon on all the time and just regulate the temperature to my liking, always have the top vent open and cures steamed up windows 90% of the time.  Also have Climair wind deflectors so if even raining I can have the window open a little which helps too.

Auto is fine if your windscreen is not too misted up. If your trying to clear your screen specifically though, you should use the dedicated screen clear button which will direct air to the windscreen.
