2000 FORD CROWN VICTORIA radio controls

Displaying outside temperature
Press OUTSIDE TEMP to display
the outside air temperature. It will
be displayed until OUTSIDE TEMP
is pressed again.
If the selected temperature is changed while the outside temperature is
displayed, the new temperature will be displayed for four seconds after it
is changed, then the outside temperature will return to the window.
If a manual override function is selected while the outside temperature is
displayed, the new function will be displayed for four seconds after it is
changed, then the outside temperature will return to the window along
with the override selection.
The outside temperature reading is most accurate when the vehicle is
moving. Higher readings may be obtained when the vehicle is not
moving. The readings that you get may not agree with temperatures
given on the radio due to differences in vehicle and station locations.
Operating tips
•In humid weather, select DEF
before driving. This will reduce
fogging on your windshield. After a few minutes, select any desired
position.
•To prevent humidity buildup inside the vehicle, don’t drive with the
climate control system in the OFF position.
•Don’t put objects under the front seat that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
