dual zone temperature set with 1 button
is it possible to control both sides of the dual-zone climate control with just one button? is there a way to make both sides lower or raise the tempereture at the same time with one of the up or down buttons? its so annoying to have to switch both of them, during the daytime I have the A/C running cuz its so hot, nighttime I need about 22 degrees celcius of heat.

aside from it being uncomfortable, its dangerous doing so while driving

Not that I know of,
But why do you want to change the temperature anyway - the whole point of climate control is you set the temp you want and it switches the AC, heating, and etc on and off to maintain it Can't think when I've touched them buttons in the last year, its set at 20c and does its job (though they are big enough buttons to press both at once without looking anyway ) |

I agree Maciejk it is irritating. Most modern cars with dual control climate control have a feature whereby the driver's side control can control both but that feature seems to have been omitted on our cars.... And don't worry about some people belittling your complaint, especially as I've seen them complain about having to switch off the heated rear screen in winter....lol. And that's only ONE button to press...

As the temperature is only monitored on the driver's side, it doesn't matter.
From what I can tell, the passenger side is just a calculation based on the driver's side reading anyway. So just adjust the driver's side and leave the passenger side. |

But I am of the understanding that if the passenger one is more than 2 degrees 'C' different either way it is negated and only the driver's side is followed... I do stand to be corrected if I'm wrong here.....
