FORD 2002 Explorer v.1 - Manual (Page 39)

When in AUTO mode and the weather is cool, the DEATC directs the
majority of the airflow to the floor area. The system will allow some
airflow out the windshield defroster ducts and the demister outlets to
reduce window fogging. Additionally, if the engine is not warm enough to
provide heat, the fan will operate at a low speed and the airflow will be
directed to the windshield or to the floor. The fan speed will start to
increase and the airflow location will change to the floor area.
When in AUTO mode, the DEATC system automatically controls the air
conditioning operation, the fan speed, the airflow direction and
determines whether outside or recirculated air is required.
If unusual conditions exist (i.e.-window fogging, etc.), the manual
override controls allow you to select airflow locations as necessary. To
return to full automatic control, press the AUTO control.
