Which gear should an automatic transmission car be in when parked with the air conditioning on?

When parking an automatic transmission car with the air conditioning on, it is best to shift to neutral. Here are the relevant details: 1. Precautions: If you want to use the air conditioning after the car has stopped, you must start the car engine to avoid draining the battery, which could make it difficult to start the car later. 2. P gear: The P gear is the most common gear in automatic transmission cars, usually located at the front of the gearshift console, before the R gear, and is designed to lock the axle when the car is stationary on a slope. The car must be started in neutral (N) gear, and the air conditioning should be turned on only after the engine has stabilized at idle speed.
