FORD 2014 Taurus v.1 - Manual (Page 140)

The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the
concentration of airborne particles, such as dust, spores and pollen, in
the air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. The particulate
filtration system gives the following benefits to customers:
• Improves the customer’s driving comfort by reducing particle
concentration.
• Improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
• Protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
For more information regarding the interval at which you should replace
the cabin air filter, see the Scheduled Maintenance chapter.
For additional cabin air filter information, or to replace the filter, see an
authorized dealer.
REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system adjusts the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation. Turn the
ignition on to return the system to its previous settings. You can now
make adjustments. You will need to turn certain vehicle-dependent
features back on, such as:

You can adjust the settings using the information display controls.
