It says "if you do not use your AC in winter", which is back to my point that using it for 10 minutes every week or two negates that and keeps the system happy.

It's pointless just putting it on for 10 minutes in winter every week or two, use it in winter, it will help clear the windscreen far quicker as the condenser dries the air, the heater heats it up, the condesation on the windscreen goes quicker, job done, it's no way 10% more fuel consumption, years ago probably, now, nowhere near that figure

Look into is yourself.

Depending on engine size, speed driven, ambient temperature and lots of other variables a car can easily use up to 10% extra fuel.

Whether you believe that or not.

My point was for those who don't use it regularly to keep their system working correctly. You use it differently and that's fine.
