Inside temperature of the vehicle

I was curious to know what temperature you have your air conditioner set to; mine stays at 19 degrees Celsius throughout the year.

Is the weather a factor in making adjustments?

Want to know

Except when you're attempting to use min and max for brief initial bursts to super chill or super heat a car, typically between 19 and 21, with 20 being the sweet spot.

It all depends on whether I'm experiencing a hot flush!
I am only able to provide seated heat, not cooled.

Normally, we set the climate control to 20C, so there's no need to touch anything.

I usually use the coldest setting and adjust the fan speed to suit, but you do need to fiddle a bit with the manual air conditioning in our current Vito to get a comfortable temperature.

Put it on Auto at 20 degrees Celsius and turn on Climate Concierge; the seats will be heated or cooled automatically according to your needs.

In my own company, it's the same and no. If it's really hot outside, she'll sometimes turn it down to 18 (because she's no mechanic), but it quickly rises back up to 19 again. I've stopped attempting to clarify. Attention, ladies!

If you want to know what the "correct" temperature is for your car's air conditioning, it's simply your personal preference.

Unless you want to wear, say, a bulky winter coat and a thin summer T-shirt, you probably won't need to adjust the climate control settings in your Mercedes-Benz from summer to winter. The system already accounts for the effect of solar heating on the occupants.

Throughout the year, I keep the temperature set at 20 degrees Celsius and rarely adjust the distribution or turn on the air conditioning...
No window fogging in the winter, chilly summers, and warm winters overall.
