I purchased a 2005 Hundai Accent with a built-in air conditioner. This is the first time in my life that I ever drove a car with an air conditioner. My question is this: Suppose my car has been parked for five hours. If I turn on my air-conditioner one minute after starting my car, will I get effective air conditioning to the same extent as though I let the motor run for ten minutes before I turned on the air conditioner? I know that in winter time every car I drove I had to let the motor run for ten minutes in order to get heat from my heater? Thank you for your response.
