wilto Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Don't think so I just turn mine of when I put the fan on. If your temperature is set to warm it won't blow cold air it just helps with the de misting of the interior 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 turn the knob off of the windscreen to feet and it'll stop coming on though you should use it all year round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montyburns Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 The dealer told me that the air con needs to run at least once a week to prevent the seals in the air con unit from perishing. It also helps with the pollen filter I believe. As far as I have figured out, the air con may say its on, but will only work if the cabin temp is above the set point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The aircon doesn't just reduce the temperature though, it also controls/adapts the humidity of the air so surely regardless of temp it should run, and just increase the amount of heat pumped out of the vents www.yorkshiredetailing.co.uk - approved resellers of the Highest quality detailing & Valeting supplies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
