2010 LINCOLN MKZ Cooled seats

DUAL AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL (DATC) SYSTEM
WITH HEATED AND COOLED SEATS
Temperature conversion:To switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius,
refer toMessage centerin theInstrument Clusterchapter.
1.
+Fan speed control:Press to increase the fan speed.
2.
Defrost:Distributes outside air through the windshield defroster
vents and de-mister vents. Can be used to clear the windshield of fog
and thin ice. The system will automatically provide outside air to reduce
window fogging. Press this button again to return to the previous air flow
selection. To return to full automatic control, press AUTO.
3.
Manual override control:Allows you to manually select where
airflow is directed. To return to full automatic control, press AUTO.
When choosing to control airflow manually, press repeatedly to toggle
through the settings to choose:
•
:Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents, de-mister
vents, floor vents and rear seat floor vents. The system will
automatically provide outside air to reduce window fogging.
•
:Distributes air through the instrument panel vents.

:Distributes air through the floor vents and rear seat floor vents.
4.A/C:Press to activate/deactivate air conditioning. Use with
recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. A/C
engages automatically in MAX A/C,
(defrost)
and
(floor/defrost).
5.AUTO:Press to engage automatic temperature control. Select the
desired temperature using the temperature control. The system will
automatically determine fan speed, airflow location, A/C on or off, and
outside or recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle to reach the
desired temperature.
6.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. Press the MAX A/C button
again for normal A/C operation.
7.
Recirculated air:Press to activate/deactivate air recirculation in
the vehicle. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time needed to
cool down the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce undesired
odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculated air engages
automatically when MAX A/C is selected or can be engaged manually in
any airflow mode except
(defrost). When the ignition switch is
turned off and back on, the climate system will return to the recirculated
air mode only if the A/C button LED is illuminated and the air
distribution selection is either
(panel) or(panel/floor).
8.PASS TEMP (passenger temperature):Press to engage/disengage
separate passenger side temperature control. Turn to increase/decrease
the air temperature on the passenger side of the vehicle. The
recommended initial setting is between 72°F (22°C) and 75°F (24°C),
then adjust for comfort. The passenger side temperature setting will
appear in the upper right corner of the display.
9.
Passenger heated seat:Press to control the passenger heated
seat. Refer toHeated and cooled seatsin theSeating and Safety
Restraintschapter for more information.

chapter for more information.
13.
Power/Driver temperature:Press to activate/deactivate the
climate control system. When the system is off, outside air is prevented
from entering the vehicle. Turn to increase/decrease the air temperature
on the driver side of the vehicle. The control also adjusts the passenger
side temperature when PASS TEMP is disengaged. The recommended
initial setting is between 72°F (22°C) and 75°F (24°C), then adjust for
comfort. The driver side temperature setting will appear in the upper left
corner of the display.
14.
RRear defroster:Press to activate/deactivate the rear window
defroster. This button will also activate/deactivate the heated mirrors.
Refer toRear window defrosterlater in this chapter for more
information.

defroster. Refer toRear window defrosterlater in this chapter for more
information. If your vehicle is equipped with both rear defroster and
heated mirrors, the same button will activate both.

recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. A/C
engages automatically in MAX A/C,
(defrost)
and

any airflow mode except
(defrost). Recirculated air may turn off
automatically in all airflow selections except MAX A/C. When the ignition
switch is turned off and back on, the climate system will return to the
recirculated air mode only if the A/C button LED is illuminated and the
air distribution selection is either
(panel) or(floor/panel).
Recirculation may turn off automatically in some airflow modes to reduce
fog potential.

Heated and cooled seats
Heated seats
WARNING:Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord
injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other physical
conditions, must exercise care when using the seat heater. The seat
heater may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods of time. Do not place anything on the seat that
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion, because this may
cause the seat heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins,
needles, or other pointed objects because this may damage the heating
element which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury.
Note:Do not do the following:
•Place heavy objects on the seat
•Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.
The heated seats will only function when the engine is running.
To operate the heated seats:
Press once to activate the high heat setting (three indicator lights).
Continue pressing to scroll through the other settings; medium heat (two
indicator lights), low heat (one indicator light) or off.
•DATC system
•Navigation-based system
The heated seats will turn off after 15 minutes.
If the engine falls below 350 RPMs while the heated seats are on, the
feature will turn itself off and will need to be reactivated.
Cooled seats
The cooled seats will only function when the engine is running.
To operate the cooled seats:
Press once to activate the high cool setting (three indicator lights).
Continue pressing to scroll through the other settings; medium cool (two
indicator lights), low cool (one indicator light) or off.

Climate controlled seats air filter replacement (if equipped)
The climate controlled seat system includes air filters that must be
replaced periodically. Refer to theScheduled maintenance information
for more information.
•There is a filter located under
each front seat.
•The filter can be accessed from the first row seat. Move the front
seats all the way back and up to ease access.
To remove an air filter:
1. Remove key from ignition.
2. Push up on the outside rigid edge
of the filter and rotate toward the
front of the vehicle once tabs are
