Lincoln 1999 Town Car - Manual (Page 23)

Turning the EATC on
Press AUTO, any of the override
controls or the fan speed control.
The EATC will only operate when
the ignition is in the ON position.
Turning the EATC off
Press OFF. The Outside
Temperature (EXT) function will
continue to operate until the
ignition is turned off.
Automatic operation
Press AUTO and select the desired temperature. The selected
temperature and the word AUTO will appear in the display window. The
EATC system will either heat or cool to achieve the selected
temperature. The system will automatically determine fan speed, airflow
location and if fresh outside air or recirculated air is required. Fan speed
remains automatic unless the fan speed control is pressed or the steering
wheel fan speed control is pressed.
When in AUTO and weather conditions require heat, air will be sent to
the floor. However, if the engine is not warm enough to provide heat, the
fan will be at a low speed and the air will be directed to the windshield.
In 3
1 ⁄
2
minutes or less, the fan speed will start to increase and the airflow
location will change to the floor area.
If unusual conditions exist (i.e.-window fogging, etc.), the manual
override controls allow you to select airflow locations and the fan control
allows you to adjust fan speed as necessary.
