MANUAL CLIMATE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
Fan speed control:
Controls the volume of air circulated in your vehicle. Adjust
to select the desired fan speed or switch off. If you switch the fan off, the
windshield may fog up. Light bars on the dial illuminate to indicate fan speed.
A
A/C:
Press the button to switch the air conditioning off and on. To improve air
conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly open
for two to three minutes. Use with recirculated air to improve cooling
performance and efficiency.
B
Power:
Press the button to turn the system off and on. When the system is off,
outside air cannot enter the vehicle.
C
Heated rear window:
Turns the heated rear window on and off. See Heated
Windows and Mirrors (page 126).
D
Temperature control:
Controls the temperature of the airflow in your vehicle.
Adjust to select the desired temperature.
E
MAX Defrost:
Turn the temperature control dial all the way past the full heat
position to turn on. The system distributes outside air through the windshield
air vents, the air conditioning automatically turns on, the fan automatically
adjusts to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full heat
position. When MAX defrost is on, recirculated air cannot be selected (to prevent
fogging). The heated rear window is automatically switched on when MAX
defrost is selected.

Fusion/Mondeo (CC7) Climate ControlE144491

MAX A/C: Turn the temperature control dial all the way past the full cool
position. The system distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel
air vents, the air conditioning automatically turns on, the fan speed automatically
adjusts to the highest speed and the temperature dial returns to the full cool
position. This re-cooling of the interior air is more economical and efficient.
G
Air distribution control:
Press these buttons to turn airflow from the
windshield, instrument panel and footwell vents. The system can distribute air
through any combination of these air vents. At least one of these buttons
remains on while the system is on.
H
Heated seats (if equipped):
Turn the driver or passenger heated seats on
and off. See Heated Seats (page 135).
I
Recirculated air:
Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. When you select recirculated air, the air currently in the
passenger compartment recirculates. This may reduce the time needed to cool
the interior (when used with A/C) and may reduce unwanted odors from entering
your vehicle. Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow modes
except MAX A/C to reduce the possibility of fogging.
J
Fan speed indicators:
Illuminate to indicate fan speed.
