Glovebox (illuminated and cooled)

[Szmulik]

Hi 

In Superb brochure is information that car has Glovebox (illuminated and cooled).

 

Is it really cooled or temperature is the same like AC? So it is heated in winter?

My guess: Because the AC occasionally runs even in heating mode ( to dehumidify) it can be cooled year-around

From my experience illuminated and cooled simply means it has a light like all cars, but has an additional opening which can be turned on/off that is connected to the heater ducts with the air temperature being the same as the those from the front vents. Basically the same system employed in other Skoda models.

 

Makes sense given that the glovebox is not sealed, and if the air remained chilled then you/your passengers would always be complaining of cold drafts int he car.

According to the manual it runs at the same temperature as the air con when the the dial is open

I stand corrected...

Centre arm rest is also cooled and works very well for drinks
