Siri is only able to read and change the target temperature of the Mitsubishi units. Siri can not change the heating/cooling/auto modes directly. To get around this limitation, you can create a scene with an app like Elgato or iDevices. For example: a scene named "Switch on the downstairs air conditioning" can turn on the downstairs AC in cooling mode, set it to 25°C and switch the Nest thermostat off. Dehumidifying mode is not supported through HomeKit.
