What are the effects of starting a car with the air conditioning on?
1 Answers
Starting a car with the air conditioning on can significantly impact the battery's performance. It is recommended to avoid doing this whenever possible. Occasional instances (once or twice) are not a major issue, but prolonged use will noticeably reduce the battery's lifespan. The difference between automatic and manual car air conditioning is similar to that between inverter and non-inverter air conditioners. Below is relevant information about automatic and manual car air conditioning: 1. Automatic air conditioning: Automatic air conditioning allows the compressor to "take it easy" by maintaining a set temperature. 2. Manual air conditioning: The compressor in manual air conditioning operates entirely according to the driver's knob settings, diligently cooling without pause.
