Refer to Menu features in the MyFord Touch or MyLincoln Touch
chapter.
A. Defrost: Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and
de-mister vents. This setting can also be used to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice.
B. Rear defrost: Turns the heated rear window on and off. Refer to
Heated rear window later in this chapter for more information. If your
vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors, this button turns them on also.
C. AUTO: Press the button to turn on fully automatic operation. Select
the desired temperature using the temperature control. The system
automatically determines fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and
outside or recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the
selected temperature.
D. CLIMATE: Press to turn the climate control system on and off. When
the system is off, outside air is prevented from entering the vehicle.
E. Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When the LED on the button is lit, the air currently in
the passenger compartment is being recirculated. Using recirculated air
can reduce the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted
odors from entering your vehicle.
