I'm a set and forget "Climate Control" user. Set temperature to 20C, Auto settings, AC on, Auto recirculation on, low intensity air flow setting, face vent temperature to suit mood and/or season. Hardly ever touch any setting, whether -5C to 30C.

Leave the system to keep the climate as constant as possible. Heat, chill, demist, dehumidify, etc. I'm in quite a humid environment, the full climate control keeps a dry and smell free vehicle.
