Ah ok, i think i understand now. Thanks varooom! So if i've got this right, if i had AUTO enabled but A/C switched off then it's possible the temperature might never get cool enough on a hot day because AUTO can only control air vents/fan speed but wouldn't actively cool the air, is that right? And if i've got this right, then although having A/C enabled on a cold day doesn't stop the air being routed via heating elements, it's still useful because of the dehumidifying effect of the A/C unit? I guess then there's an argument that it makes sense being able to switch off A/C on cooler days as you're basically wasting energy cooling air only for it to be heated before the vent and unless misting up is an issue that seems wasteful. I think it all makes sense to me now - thanks!

Thanks for the quick replies folks. Still a bit confused tbh. I can switch off A/C even though AUTO is switched on though? So what does that do if AUTO is enabled? And if it's switched on but AUTO determines i need heat why does A/C (aka 'cooling') still show switched on? I've been running for ages with both buttons switched on as per Kenny so no real issue as such. Just the nerd in me wanted to understand. I'm still not seeing why it makes sense for both buttons and for both to be independent of each other. It would make sense to me if it were an either/or thing but can't understand how both can be on or off regardless of the state of the other - as in A/C was the manual control for cooling but that meant you weren't in AUTO mode and vice versa. Or if the A/C button showed on or off depending on whether AUTO decided you needed cooling or heating. I'm clearing missing something because i asked a friend on this recently too and they didn't seem to understand my confusion either. Perhaps i am overthinking this!

Hello folks. So yeah, this is probably a really stupid question but it's bugging me and i need to know. What's the difference between the A/C and AUTO buttons on climate control? The user manual states AUTO will keep the temperature constant and stop the windows misting while the A/C button is described as causing temp and humidity to drop and stop windows misting. Am i a complete idiot for not understanding the difference? Do i need A/C switched on if i want a temperature inside that is lower than ambient temp outside? Do i need to switch it off if i want an inside temp higher than outside? If AUTO keeps the temp constant doesn't that just mean it will either cool or heat depending on what is needed? I feel really stupid but i really don't understand!
