The rear defroster control is located on the climate control panel and
works to clear the rear window of fog and thin ice. If equipped, the
heated outside mirrors also operate with this control to remove snow,
mist and ice from the side mirrors.
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. The cabin air filter
restricts the entry of airborne dust and pollen particles. The filter is
located just in front of the windshield under the cowl vent screen on the
passenger side of the vehicle.
For more information, or to replace the filter, see your authorized Ford
or Lincoln Mercury dealer.
