MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
1.Temperature selection:Controls the temperature of the airflow in
the vehicle.
2.Mode selections:Controls the location of the airflow in the vehicle.
See the following for a brief description of each selection.
MAX A/C:Distributes recirculated
air through the instrument panel
vents to cool the vehicle. This
re-cooling of the interior air is more
economical and efficient.
Recirculated air may also help
reduce undesirable odors from
entering the vehicle.
:Distributes air through the
instrument panel vents.
:Distributes air through the instrument panel vents and the floor
vents.
O (OFF):Outside air is shut out and the climate system is turned off.
:Distributes air through the floor vents.
:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and floor
vents.
:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents. Can be
used to clear the windshield of fog and thin ice.
3.Rear defroster (R
):Press to activate/deactivate the rear window
defroster. Refer toRear window defrosterlater in this section for more
information.
4.Recirculation control
: Press to activate/deactivate air
recirculation in cabin. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time to
cool down the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce undesired
exterior odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculation
engages automatically with selection of MAX A/C or can be engaged
manually in any other mode selection except
(defrost).
Recirculation may turn off automatically in all airflow selections except
MAX A/C.
5.A/C:Press to activate/deactivate air conditioning. Use with
recirculated air to improve cooling performance. Engages automatically
in MAX A/C,
(defrost) and(floor/defrost).

6.Fan speed adjustment:Controls the volume of air circulated in the
vehicle.
Operating tips
•To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place
the air flow selector in the
(defrost) position.
•To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle, do not drive with the
airflow selector in the O (OFF) position or with recirculated air
engaged.
•Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the
airflow to the back seats.
•Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of
the windshield.
•To improve the A/C cool down, drive with the windows slightly open
for 2-3 minutes after start up or until the vehicle has been“aired out.”
For maximum cooling performance in MAX A/C mode:
1. Move temperature control to the coolest setting.
2. Set the fan to the highest speed initially, then adjust to maintain
comfort.
For maximum cooling performance in panel or panel/floor modes:
1. Move temperature control to the coolest setting.
2. Select A/C and recirculated air (
) to provide colder airflow.
3. Set the fan to the highest speed initially, then adjust to maintain
comfort.
To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather:
1. Select
.
2. Select A/C.
3. Adjust the temperature control to maintain comfort.
4. Set the fan speed to the highest setting.
5. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows.
6. To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the
vents located in the middle of the instrument panel.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.

REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER (R)
Ensure that the ignition is in the 3 (ON) position. Press the control to
clear the rear window of thin ice and fog. The LED will illuminate.
The rear window defroster turns off automatically after 10 minutes, or
when the ignition is turned to the 1 (OFF/LOCK) position. To manually
turn off the defroster before 10 minutes have passed, push the control
again.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp objects to clean the inside
of the rear window or to remove decals from the inside of the
rear window. This may cause damage to the heated grid lines and
will not be covered by your warranty.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air filter, which is located just in
front of the windshield under the cowl grille on the passenger side of the
vehicle.
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, refer to yourScheduled Maintenance Guide.
For more cabin air filter information, or to replace the filter, see your
authorized dealer.

INFORMATION ABOUT UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADING
New vehicles are fitted with tires
that have a rating on them called
Tire Quality Grades. The Quality
grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall
between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For
example:
•Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
These Tire Quality Grades are determined by standards that the United
States Department of Transportation has set.
Tire Quality Grades apply to new pneumatic tires for use on passenger
cars. They do not apply to deep tread, winter-type snow tires,
space-saver or temporary use spare tires, tires with nominal rim
diameters of 10 to 12 inches or limited production tires as defined in
Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations Part 575.104(c)(2).
U.S. Department of Transportation-Tire quality grades:The U.S.
Department of Transportation requires Ford to give you the following
information about tire grades exactly as the government has written it.
Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire
graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the
norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices, and
differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction AA A B C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The
grades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
