[s-cars] Why does it do that?

[Fred Munro]

Doug;

The snowflake shows that the AC system is powered and will come on if the
cabin temp rises above the setpoint or if "defrost" is engaged. You can turn
it off by pushing the snowflake button on the CC head. If it is off, the AC
will not come on even if the cabin temp rises above the setpoint.

Similar question, why does the compressor (snowflake) always stay on when
the temp is above 45? Is it the wobble clutch on the compressor that varies
it's output, but we just see it as on most of the time?
