I agree with Avi, for an annual simulation if you specified your schedule to operate the way you intend, the warning is just alerting you that these other schedule types will have values set to zero. If you are autosizing HVAC equipment at all, you should create a separate Summer Design Day, based on the climactic data you can find in Chapter 14 of ASHRAE HoF (or here: http://ashrae-meteo.info/). If you don't, you will likely get high unmet cooling load hours.
