2005 FORD EXPEDITION heater

AUXILIARY A/C-HEATER CONTROLS (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle may be equipped with auxiliary climate controls. These
allow the front or rear seat passengers to control airflow direction,
temperature and fan level of the rear compartment to quickly heat or
cool the vehicle.
Auxiliary climate controls are located in the first row overhead console
and in the floor console on the back of the front row console.
If the main climate control system is in the OFF position, the auxiliary
climate control will not operate.
The auxiliary unit can be controlled either by the front seat occupant(s)
using the front auxiliary control or by the rear seat passenger(s) using
the rear auxiliary control but not both. To control the auxiliary unit using
the rear control, the front auxiliary blower control must be in the REAR
position.
Front auxiliary controls:
1.Temperature control:
Determines airflow temperature in
the rear of the vehicle. If the main
climate control system is cooling in
MAX A/C or
mode, the
auxiliary temperature control will
not function as the entire vehicle
will operate at a full cool
temperature.
2.Mode selector:Press to select
air flow direction to
(Floor) or(Panel).
Directs air to the floor of the third row seating.
directs air to the overhead registers of the second and third row
seating. The selected mode will illuminate on the temperature control.
3.Fan control:Determines fan speed in the auxiliary system. Turn to
REAR to give rear seat passengers control of the rear auxiliary controls.
Otherwise, the front auxiliary control will determine the settings for the
auxiliary A/C-heater. If set to O (OFF), the rear auxiliary controls will
not function.

Perform compass calibration in an open area free from steel structures
and high voltage lines. For optimum calibration, turn off all electrical
accessories (heater/air conditioning, wipers, etc.) and make sure all
vehicle doors are shut.
8. Press the RESET control to start
the compass calibration function.
9. Slowly drive the vehicle in a
circle (less than 3 mph [5 km/h])
until the CIRCLE SLOWLY TO
CALIBRATE display changes to CALIBRATION COMPLETE. It will take
up to five circles to complete calibration.
10. The compass is now calibrated.
Distance to empty (DTE)
Selecting this function from the
INFO menu estimates approximately
how far you can drive with the fuel
remaining in your tank under
normal driving conditions.
Remember to turn the ignition OFF
when refueling to allow this feature to correctly detect the added fuel.
The DTE function will display LOW FUEL LEVEL and sound a tone for
one second when you have approximately 50 miles (80 km) to empty. If
you RESET this warning message, this display and tone will return
within 10 minutes.
DTE is calculated using a running average fuel economy, which is based
on your recent driving history of 500 miles (800 km). This value is not
the same as the average fuel economy display. The running average fuel
economy is reinitialized to a factory default value if the battery is
disconnected.

3. After idling for a few seconds, apply the brake, shift into gear and
drive.
Note:If the engine does not start within five seconds on the first try,
turn the key to OFF, wait 10 seconds and try again. If the engine still
fails to start, press the accelerator to the floor and try again; this will
allow the engine to crank with the fuel shut off in case the engine is
flooded with fuel.
Using the engine block heater (if equipped)
If your vehicle is factory equipped
with an engine block heater, a
rubber cap/plug assembly will be
visibly attached to the grille on the
front of the vehicle. For
factory-equipped, this assembly is
loose-shipped in-vehicle for
dealerhip installation. If not
factory-equipped, the engine block
heater can be purchased through
dealership accessories. Replacement
rubber caps are available through the dealer, 3L1Z-6E088-AA.
Use of an engine block heater is strongly recommended if you live in a
region where temperatures reach -10°F (-23°C) or below. For best
results, plug the heater in at least three hours before starting the vehicle
(the heater can be plugged in the night before starting the vehicle). To
plug the heater in, remove the cap from the plug and insert the plug into
a 110 volt grounded outlet. Be sure to re-attach the cap onto the plug
when the heater is not in use.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or two-pronged (cheater)
adapters.
Guarding against exhaust fumes
Carbon monoxide is present in exhaust fumes. Take precautions to avoid
its dangerous effects.
If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer
inspect your vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you smell
exhaust fumes.

3. Locate the round access plug on
the underside of the steering
column cover.
4. Remove the access plug using a flat-head screwdriver, then insert your
finger and pull the override button toward you. With the button pulled
toward you, apply the brake pedal and shift the transmission into N
(Neutral).
5. Reinstall the access plug cover, start the vehicle and release the
parking brake.
Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the brakelamps
are working.
Always set the parking brake fully and make sure the gearshift is
latched in P (Park). Turn the ignition to the LOCK position and
remove the key whenever you leave your vehicle.
If the parking brake is fully released, but the brake warning lamp
remains illuminated, the brakes may not be working properly.
See your dealer or a qualified service technician.
Driving with a 4–speed automatic transmission
Your vehicle’s automatic transmission is equipped with a special shift
strategy that insures maximum heater performance during cold weather
operation.
When ambient temperature is 23°F (–5°C) or below and the engine
coolant temperature is below 100°F (38°C), light throttle upshifts may be

Preparing your vehicle
When the battery is disconnected or a new battery is installed, the
transmission must relearn its shift strategy. As a result, the transmission
may have firm and/or soft shifts. This operation is considered normal and
will not affect function or durability of the transmission. Over time, the
adaptive learning process will fully update transmission operation.
1.Use only a 12–volt supply to start your vehicle.
2. Do not disconnect the battery of the disabled vehicle as this could
damage the vehicle’s electrical system.
3. Park the booster vehicle close to the hood of the disabled vehicle
making sure the two vehiclesdo nottouch. Set the parking brake on
both vehicles and stay clear of the engine cooling fan and other moving
parts.
4. Check all battery terminals and remove any excessive corrosion before
you attach the battery cables. Ensure that vent caps are tight and level.
5. Turn the heater fan on in both vehicles to protect any electrical
surges. Turn all other accessories off.
Connecting the jumper cables
1. Connect the positive (+) jumper cable to the positive (+) terminal of
the discharged battery.
Note:In the illustrations,lightning boltsare used to designate the
assisting (boosting) battery.
