Caution When Using Air Conditioning in Sun-Exposed Cars

Get into your car baked like an oven under the hot sun, and the first thing you do is start the engine and blast the AC on full power? This only makes heat dissipation extremely slow and wastes a ton of gas! After being exposed to direct sunlight, the materials inside your car release high-temperature heat and volatile gases. If you run the AC with the windows closed from the start, the AC will just keep circulating this hot air within the car. Method: After getting in, first open the passenger side window. Then, open and close the driver's side door repeatedly 4-5 times (to vent out the hot air). After starting the engine, turn on the AC with the exterior circulation mode and windows open for 1 minute. Once the hot air dissipates, close the windows and switch back to interior circulation. Cooling speed will double!
