What does 'auto' mean on a Toyota car?

Auto translates to 'automatic' in English. Generally, the AUTO button refers to the car's air conditioning control. Detailed analysis is as follows: 1. When the AUTO button is activated, the car's air conditioning system automatically adjusts to the appropriate temperature and fan speed. 2. If the interior temperature is too high, activating AUTO will cause the system to automatically regulate the air conditioning temperature and fan speed. Once a certain temperature is reached, it will maintain a constant fan speed. If the temperature rises again, the system will automatically cool it down. 3. If the interior temperature is too low, activating AUTO will cause the air conditioning to blow warm air to maintain a comfortable temperature, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
The auto button in Toyota vehicles primarily refers to the automatic air conditioning function. It stands for "automatic" mode. Once I start the car and press this button, the system automatically adjusts the fan speed and air outlet positions based on the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the vehicle to reach my set comfort level. It's incredibly simple to use: I just start the car, lightly press the auto button to confirm activation, and then set the desired temperature using the temperature knob. The whole process eliminates the need for me to frequently adjust the fan speed or mode, which is especially convenient during commutes when the weather changes. For example, in summer when the car feels like a sauna, the auto mode increases the cold air to cool down quickly; in winter when it's as cold as a fridge, it rapidly warms up. This feature is quite intelligently designed, with built-in sensors that monitor the ambient temperature in real-time and adjust the compressor's operation, while the fan speed also changes automatically to reduce noise and maintain a comfortable driving experience. Although it operates automatically, I can still manually adjust the fan speed if I find it too strong or too weak, and I can also optimize air quality by changing the air recirculation mode via the central control screen.
