The wrong operation of the car with the cold air on in the summer not only does not bring a comfortable driving experience, but also may cause damage to the performance and life of the car. So, let's take a look at some common mistakes, and have you ever been tricked?
First of all, when many people drive in the summer, they immediately turn the temperature inside the car to the lowest and turn on the cold air with maximum air volume. However, instead of quickly lowering the interior temperature, this will increase the load on the engine and lead to increased fuel consumption. The correct approach is to open the windows first to let the hot air out of the car, and then turn on the air conditioner to set the temperature and internal and external circulation to a comfortable range, which can not only cool down quickly, but also save fuel consumption.
Secondly, some drivers prefer to turn on the cold air for a long time, even when the temperature in the car is already low. Not only does this easily lead to colds, but it can also cause excessive burden on the car's air conditioning system, which in turn affects its service life. The correct approach should be to adjust the air conditioning settings according to the temperature inside the car and the outside air temperature in a timely manner to avoid excessive use of cold air.
In addition, there are some motorists who like to close their windows and turn on the air conditioner for a long time when parking. Doing so not only leads to a decrease in the air quality inside the car, but can also trigger dangerous conditions such as carbon monoxide poisoning. The correct approach should be to properly open the windows for ventilation when parking to keep the air circulating in the car.
In short, you need to pay attention to some details to avoid wrong operation when turning on the cold air in the car in summer. Only the correct use of air conditioning can make driving more comfortable and safe, and at the same time protect the performance and life of the car. Hopefully, the above will help you and make driving in the summer more relaxed and enjoyable.
