Also a good time to crank the AC up to max and use the wasted energy to get your evaporator cool, then use the fan and recirculate to keep the cool air coming after you have shut off the compressor. Call it free regenerative AC, using inertia otherwise lost. In a manual you can downshift and keep the compressor pumping even in DFCO.
