If its red hot outside and you have full cooling on, then yes, probably best to keep the windows shut.

But generally, if its say 18 outside and you have it set to 18 in the car then windows open or closed will make no difference.

THe CC will only cool if it needs to, the snowflake is not an 'A/C' on/off button it just allows the CC to use cooling if it needs too.

When its not very warm outside, the compressor will be backed off to almost nothing just for light drying.

The designers would say its meant to be left on 100% . And no smells.
