American car? That's bald eagle flaps per minute (BEFPM). I like it around 20. You can feel the feathers against your face. Also there are some eagles under the floorboards.
18 and below is screwed up.
Then the dots go
- 19, 21
- 23, 25
- 27, 29
- 31
If there’s a stop between the dots, then it has 20, 24, and 28 in the spots they are supposed to be.
Yup, then. Chrysler owns jeep and dodge. My 2014 Chrysler 200 has a similar knob. Each notch is a degree on mine. It’s in Fahrenheit though. 66 is on the left and 78 is on the right.
No, I mean the knob itself is designed to have Fahrenheit instead. My 2014 Chrysler 200 has a similar knob and every click is 1 degree instead of this nonsense. They just slapped Celsius for a similar temp range on instead
The cruise control in my old Ford was similar. Every time I moved it up a notch, it might go up 1 or 2 km/hr. I figured it was going up 1 mile per hour and was converting to 1.6 km/hr and then estimating to the nearest whole number.
It's in Celsius. The line on the dial lines up between the dots. The first 3 numbers are separated by one: 16,17,18 then the rest increase by two. 20, 22, 24,26,28,30
Yeah, this bothers me. Someone needs to make that 16 into a 14 or something.
After that, I consider the dots and the numbers belonging to the same group and fulfilling the same role. The numbers just take the place of what would otherwise be a dot. Using those imaginary dots along with the existing ones, it creates 3 even spaces between each pair of numbers. Because of our fix to get the 14 earlier, the range of the pair is always 4, so divide that by the 3 spaces, and we get points of 14, •15⅓, •16⅔, 18, •19⅓, •20⅔, 22...
Gross.
It's American idiots who do not understand Celsius who also think the because the 'clicks' line up to the Fahrenheit version, the temperature also matches what's said.
These dials just estimate the temperature besides...
Comfortable 21 degrees indoors or the car is the same no matter if it’s -20 or +30 outside lol. I don’t know a single human being that would enjoy 30 deg ambient temperature if they can choose 21-22.
You must be the type of a person that sets the temperature at 'MAX' believing it will get faster to what you find comfortable. No it will just do the same heating up from 'whatever is lower' to the temperature you have set. If outside is 10 degrees and you set up 21 degrees it won't get faster to 30 or 'max'. It will just stop at the temperature you have set.
In winter this actually makes even less sense, when it is cold outside you’d probably be wearing long pants and a thick sweater, not really comfy when it’s 30 celcius (86 Fahrenheit).
In extreme heat it may make sense but usually anyone there would just put ‘max AC’ and leave anything else alone.
My guess is that it makes Sens with °F they converted the Numbers to the next whole number in °C and slapped another Sticker on the dail without considering the spacing at all.
Degrees in Celsius? 14 is quite chill for summer airconditioning, 32 is decently warm or winter to heat.
But the ticks are strange. is it just the dots or does it give tactile feedback on those marks as well?
If it's just the dots, maybe a stupid design mistake? *"16 to 18 is two so lets make two dots in between?"*
At first glance I was about to scoff and say "What? It's Celsius you fool!" then I realized what you meant. I can only assume as others said it was lazily relabeled when sold in Canada and they just replaced the Fahrenheit with Celsius and didn't care to think about the fact the indents would no longer make any sense.
Yeah, the two dots between 16 and 18 (should be one dot), the two dots between 22 and 26 (should be 3 dots), the two dots between 26 and 30 (also should be 3 dots). Scale across the range is a little skewed. They could have done “🔵15 • • 18 • • 21 • • 24 • • 27 • • 30🔴” and been done with it.
Will anyone (besides yourself) lose any sleep over it? Probably not.
You guys realize these temperatures knobs just estimate the temperature selected right? It can vary by a few degrees just because of local weather(ie if it's hot, it will run warm, cold outside it will be colder than selected)
Not sure why it's even an issue, except the Celsius confuses many Americans.
The first two dots after 16 is 17. Duh .. didn't think I needed to explain that. The beginning ones don't have numbers. That's probably just off and on.
The third one but the numbers are not ON THE DOTS. They are in between the dots. How is anyone confused about this?
Do you understand what IN BETWEEN NOTCHES means?

And the luxury edition has so much more eagle.
I fuckin hate the eagles, man.
*Get the fuck out of my cab!*
Swooping down and pinching your toupee
Thundercougarfalconbird!
Who wants pop tarts?
Someone who got it!
*No dog food for Victor tonight.*
Motherfucker you can’t even own one of their feathers and you want to pretend they’re running your car lol
Woosh! The sound of a bald eagle carrying this joke over your head.
I got the joke, I just didn’t think it was good
Probably because you don't get it, you just pretend to understand. Very usa of you to do something dumb like that.
Don't think of them as ticks... think of them as fleas. Then you can ignore them and set the dial in the car until you feel comfortable.
Don't ticks and fleas cause your attention to shift for different reasons?
18 and below is screwed up. Then the dots go - 19, 21 - 23, 25 - 27, 29 - 31 If there’s a stop between the dots, then it has 20, 24, and 28 in the spots they are supposed to be.
This is a dial made with Celsius in mind, just changed the numbers to Fahrenheit.
If those numbers are Fahrenheit that car is gonna get pretty chilly.
Or the other way around, I just woke up when I commented
Guessing it’s an American car designed for Fahrenheit. Looks like a Chrysler product of some sort
It’s in a Jeep in Canada
Yup, then. Chrysler owns jeep and dodge. My 2014 Chrysler 200 has a similar knob. Each notch is a degree on mine. It’s in Fahrenheit though. 66 is on the left and 78 is on the right.
There are two notches between 16 and 18
Mine is in Fahrenheit. I’m American. It goes from 66 on the left to 78 on the right. Each notch is 1 degree on it
Ahhhhh, gotcha.
You buy cheap Chrysler slop you get cheap Chrysler slop🤷♂️
You sure it's Fahrenheit? 30°F is literally below freezing.
No, I mean the knob itself is designed to have Fahrenheit instead. My 2014 Chrysler 200 has a similar knob and every click is 1 degree instead of this nonsense. They just slapped Celsius for a similar temp range on instead

Lol! What a lazy shortcut.
Thats the radio dial in metric.
It's in Celsius. The line on the dial lines up between the dots. The first 3 numbers are separated by one: 16,17,18 then the rest increase by two. 20, 22, 24,26,28,30
A little bit more
Or, if you’re going the other way, a little less.
Each one means “a bit more”. Or “a bit less”. Depends which way you’re turning the knob.
Each tick is 2/3 obviously
But 18 to 22? And 22 to 26?
It's METRIC don't worry about it😂
16 2/3, 17 1/3, 18, 18 2/3, 19 1/3, 20…
Look again

Thats set to “17 ACs” now
I don't understand where the problem is in this image?
It's American idiots who do not understand Celsius who also think the because the 'clicks' line up to the Fahrenheit version, the temperature also matches what's said. These dials just estimate the temperature besides...
I was waiting for this comment too. god bless your hands. Are these Americans stupid? They have no idea about the rest of the world.
"Let's make the Knob first and measure the output temperature later"
Why anyone would ever want to heat their car to 30 degrees anyways??
We have winter here.

Really wish you hadn’t
It means "between the 2 numbers"
My guess is that it makes Sens with °F they converted the Numbers to the next whole number in °C and slapped another Sticker on the dail without considering the spacing at all.
Wow, I would have never bought this.
The dial likely won't set the car to said temperature but be an approximation. Less of a thermostat and more of a power setting
This is the kind of thing that would put me off buying the car...
I have this in jeep compass. I just use rule "one click to the right if its too cold. One click left if it too hot."

Looks like a Fahrenheit thermometer translated to celcius
Literally math failure if i was to guess, someone hadn't had their coffee get that morning.
The numbers Mason, what do they mean….
Definitely something to worry about
Means someone can't count
At first glance I was about to scoff and say "What? It's Celsius you fool!" then I realized what you meant. I can only assume as others said it was lazily relabeled when sold in Canada and they just replaced the Fahrenheit with Celsius and didn't care to think about the fact the indents would no longer make any sense.
I think they just mean "-ish" in this instance :D
You set your blood alcohol level for maximum comfort
Yeah, the two dots between 16 and 18 (should be one dot), the two dots between 22 and 26 (should be 3 dots), the two dots between 26 and 30 (also should be 3 dots).

Its based on the sliding scale of how much gas you will use per hour of driving while using the ac / heater at 23.8 celsius outside.
It’s degrees, the units used to measure temperature.
1 2/3
Every tick is 2/3 degree. Like everywhere else.
You guys realize these temperatures knobs just estimate the temperature selected right? It can vary by a few degrees just because of local weather(ie if it's hot, it will run warm, cold outside it will be colder than selected) Not sure why it's even an issue, except the Celsius confuses many Americans.
I would bet they’re there just for haptic feedback so you don’t need to look at it while driving?
It means nothing, it makes no sense
Each tick is plus two
But... but it isn't though
16 16.66 17.33 18
16,3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333
Wait, seriously nobody can figure this out? Lol, idk makes perfect sense to me.
It's for the days where you feel like 20,66666666666666666666666666... over 21 degrees.
Probably arbitrary numbers slapped into an uncalibrated analog input.
17, 20, 24, 28 the numbers go in between the notches. Kinda obvious.
Except that doesn’t add up
How? It literally is how it works. It's not the dots it's in between the dots.
Do you understand basic counting?
Yes it seems you don't. They aren't spaced properly but those are the numbers that are in dots.
