Maintaining a comfortable temperature in the vehicle is a fundamental aspect for the comfort and safety of the journey

During the summer, many miles and hours are spent in the car, so it is important to ensure that the vehicle’s air conditioning system is working properly. Therefore, it is important to consider a series of tips to use the air conditioner efficiently
and don’t get hotAccording to Oscar:

Before we resume the march: While it may seem obvious, trying to park in the shade is the ultimate ‘trick’ to keep the vehicle from reaching high temperatures. It is true that in the summer, whether on the beach or in the city, it is not always possible. One solution that helps to reduce the temperature in the vehicle to 10º is to open the doors while the air conditioning is running on low power. In this way, the cooling process is accelerated without increasing energy consumption, saving up to 20% on vehicle consumption.

The first kilometers without air at full capacity: when the march has started, we will set the air conditioning to a medium level with the windows down until we get more speed, after which the air conditioning revolutions can be increased and increased.

Point the vent upwards: Cold air weighs more than warm air, so pointing the vents toward the ceiling will cool the vehicle’s interior faster and promote air circulation.

never less than 22 degrees: it is advisable to keep the temperature between 22º and 23º and not towards the face or neck, but towards the ceiling. In summer, we tend to set the air conditioning to very low temperatures to escape the heat as quickly as possible, which can be harmful to our health. In fact, the great temperature contrasts cause unexpected colds that can jeopardize the rest of the holiday.

For long journeys, better air recirculation: once the ideal temperature has been reached, and especially for long journeys, it is best to use the ‘air recirculation’ function to take advantage of the cold air in the cabin and ensure that all passengers, even those in the back of the vehicle, enjoy a pleasant temperature throughout the journey. In addition, in this way we avoid overuse of the cooling system and we protect the compressor against possible malfunctions.
