How do you reset the Climatronic of the Volkswagen Golf?

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Air conditioner

The Climatronic installed on the Volkswagen Golf can be reset by turning on the instrument panel, then inserting the key into the ignition switch and turning it: once the instrument panel is activated, you can press and hold the A/C button and the button to direct the airflow in front. In this way, you will notice that the lights on the air conditioning controls will flash; as soon as they become steady, you can release the two buttons and you will see that the air conditioning settings have been reset to their initial settings.
