1 Answers
It is necessary to turn off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine. Forgetting to turn off the air conditioning until after the engine is off can be harmful to the engine. This is because the next time the vehicle is started, the engine will have to bear the load of the air conditioning, which can cause damage due to the high stress. Below are some additional misconceptions about parking and turning off the engine: Listening to music after turning off the engine: After the engine is off, devices such as the radio, CD player, navigation system, lights, and various other car electronics can still be used. However, prolonged use can easily lead to excessive discharge of the battery, thereby affecting its lifespan. Turning off the engine without turning off the headlights: Forgetting to turn off the interior lights when parking and turning off the engine is a common mistake made by many new car owners. Experts point out that after a night of consumption, the battery may run out of power at any time, making it impossible to start the car.
