Can't the air conditioning be turned on without starting the car?

You cannot turn on the air conditioning without starting the car. The car's air conditioning compressor relies on the engine's operation to function, and the heat for the warm air is generated by the engine warming up. If the car is only powered on but not started, turning on the air conditioning will not produce cooling or heating effects. Functions of the car air conditioning: 1. Achieve cooling effects through the continuous cycle of refrigerant; 2. Remove dust, odors, smoke, and toxic gases from the car's interior air, making the air fresher, and humidify the air to increase relative humidity. Maintenance methods for car air conditioning: 1. Do not set the temperature too low; 2. Control the direction of the air vents; 3. Avoid prolonged use; 4. Appropriately use high fan speed; 5. Turn off the air conditioning when driving at low speeds.
