Abstract
The temperature of the interior of a motor vehicle is controlled by an air conditioner in relation to a temperature setting which is variable in response to an action of a vehicle occupant. A voice synthesizer (17) is supplied with vocal information data supplied from a microcomputer (13) in response to the entry thereto of a temperature resetting command. The voice synthesizer generates a vocal announcement of a new temperature setting. Vocal announcements of successively varying temperature values are generated to allow the vehicle occupant to take a second action when a desired temperature value is announced.
