What does the AUTO light on the dashboard mean?

Automatic mode. This button is usually used on car air conditioning, referring to the automatic air conditioning mode. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Car air conditioning: The car air conditioning device (air-conditioning-device), referred to as car air conditioning. It is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air flow inside the car cabin to the optimal state, providing passengers with a comfortable riding environment and reducing travel fatigue; it creates good working conditions for the driver and plays an important role in ensuring safe driving as a ventilation device. 2. Automatic air conditioning system: The automatic air conditioning system is the abbreviation of the car's fully automatic air conditioning system, mainly composed of three parts: the air conditioning refrigeration system, the heating and ventilation system, and the automatic control system.
When the 'auto' light on the dashboard is illuminated, it usually indicates that the car's automatic air conditioning function is activated. This means the system automatically adjusts settings such as fan speed and air vent direction based on your preset temperature and the actual interior conditions. It continuously monitors the temperature difference between inside and outside the vehicle, automatically heating or cooling as needed, so I don't have to constantly adjust it manually, allowing me to focus on the road while driving. Sometimes, when the weather changes rapidly, it responds quickly—for example, if it suddenly starts raining, the system will increase defogging intensity to improve visibility and safety. Having used many cars, I find this feature extremely practical. However, if the light keeps flashing or doesn't turn on, it might indicate a sensor issue or incorrect settings. Restarting the engine usually resolves the problem.
