What do the symbols 'a' and 'm' mean for the internal and external circulation?
2 Answers
The 'a' near the internal and external circulation control button refers to the automatic mode, and 'm' refers to the manual control mode. Here are the relevant introductions: 1. Automatic judgment: After switching to the automatic mode, it can automatically determine whether to turn on the internal circulation or the external circulation based on the control quality inside and outside the vehicle. After switching to the m mode, the driver can control the air conditioner to turn on the internal circulation or the external circulation. 2. Car air conditioner: The car air conditioner has an internal circulation mode and an external circulation mode. After turning on the internal circulation mode, fresh air from outside the vehicle will not enter the vehicle. After turning on the external circulation mode, fresh air from outside the vehicle can enter the vehicle. If you are driving on some highways, it is recommended to turn on the external circulation.
When you ask me about the meanings of 'a' and 'm' on the air conditioning button, it reminds me of the confusion I encountered while driving. 'a' actually stands for Auto mode, where the system intelligently switches between internal and external air circulation, such as automatically adjusting based on interior odors or temperature, saving me the trouble of manual operation. 'm' refers to Manual mode, where I have to personally choose between internal circulation (recirculating cabin air for rapid cooling or heating) or external circulation (drawing in fresh air, especially useful in traffic jams to prevent excessive carbon monoxide levels). This design is quite thoughtful because automatic switching can indeed be safer during smoggy days, while on highways I might prefer manual control over airflow. Remember, proper usage can significantly enhance driving comfort and health, and it also helps cool down the car faster in summer. Over time, experienced drivers realize these small details help avoid many awkward moments.
