What does AUTO mean in car air conditioning?

[OZoe]

The Chinese meaning of AUTO in air conditioning is automatic air conditioning mode. Generally set at 24 degrees Celsius, the air conditioning will automatically choose between cooling or heating based on the ambient temperature and the set temperature, and adjust the fan speed accordingly. Below are other common functions found in cars: 1. Electronic Parking Brake: Replaces the traditional hand-operated parking brake. Gently pulling the button upward will engage the parking brake, while pressing it downward will release it. 2. AUTOHOLD: Automatic Hold System. Its function is to hold the vehicle in place during stop-and-go traffic. When stopping at a red light, releasing the brake pedal will activate the automatic hold, locking the wheels until the accelerator pedal is pressed, at which point the wheels will automatically unlock. 3. Engine Auto Start-Stop: When the brake is fully depressed, the engine will automatically shut off, and when the accelerator is pressed to move forward, the engine will automatically restart, thereby achieving fuel savings. It is most commonly used when waiting at traffic lights. 4. ESP Electronic Stability Program: Automatically controls the vehicle's attitude, preventing rollovers, skids, and other loss-of-control situations at critical moments, significantly enhancing driving safety.
