First A/C use

Well it is pushing 90F here today.First day over 70,and 4 days ago a high of 55.I'M MELTING.So as much as I like motoring with the windows down,I figured It was time to try the A/C after 10 months. Now I remembered that the go pedal does not have quite the same zip as when the A/C is off,I almost put my head through the windscreen when I took my foot off the throttleWho needs brakesPlum forgot about that.

You should cycle the AC from time to time (at least once a month) to keep
the system lubed and in working order... or use the Defrost mode while
driving in the rain.
