The reason why the auto start-stop does not work when the air conditioning is on is that the temperature inside the car is still relatively high. Therefore, to ensure passenger comfort, the auto start-stop system will stop functioning. If the interior temperature reaches the level set by the air conditioning, the auto start-stop system will resume operation. Many cars are equipped with an auto start-stop system, which helps save fuel and reduce exhaust emissions. The cooling principle of a car's air conditioning system: When cooling is activated by pressing the AC button, the compressor clutch engages, allowing the car's engine to drive the compressor. The compressor continuously compresses the refrigerant and delivers it to the evaporator. The refrigerant expands and absorbs heat inside the evaporator, cooling it. The cooled evaporator then cools the air blown by the blower, resulting in cold air being emitted from the air vents.

Here is relevant information about diesel fuel: Concept: Diesel is a light petroleum product, a complex mixture of hydrocarbons (with carbon atom numbers approximately 10-22), used as fuel for diesel engines. Properties: Diesel has a boiling point range and viscosity between kerosene and lubricating oil among liquid petroleum distillates. It is flammable, volatile, insoluble in water, but soluble in alcohol and other organic solvents. It is a complex mixture with two boiling point ranges: 180°C–370°C and 350°C–410°C. Uses: Diesel is mainly used as power for tractors, large vehicles, diesel locomotives, construction machinery (excavators, loaders), fishing boats, diesel generator sets, and agricultural machinery. It serves as fuel for diesel-powered vehicles like diesel cars and tractors.
