DUAL AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEM
Note:You can switch temperature units between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
SeeSettingsin theMyLincoln Touchchapter.
A.MyTemp:Allows you to quickly adjust to a frequently used setting
with a single touch.
Press + and - to increase and decrease the temperature.
Touch and hold MyTemp to save the current temperature. To access the
setting again, touch the MyTemp indicator again.
B.Fan speed control:You can press or tap the right or left side of the
slider, or slide your finger across the control, to increase or decrease the
fan speed.
C.DUAL:Allows the passenger to set their temperature independent of
the driver temperature.
D.Recirculated air:Press this button to switch between outside air
and recirculated air. When the LED on the button lights up, this
indicates the air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates.
This may reduce the time needed to cool the interior (when used with
air conditioning) and may reduce unwanted odors from entering your
vehicle.
Note:Recirculated air engages automatically when you select MAX A/C.
You can turn it on manually in any airflow mode except defrost.
E.MAX A/C:Distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel
vents to cool the vehicle. This position is more economical and efficient
than normal air conditioning.

CABIN AIR FILTER
Note:A cabin air filter must be installed at all times to prevent foreign
objects from entering the system. Running the system without a filter in
place could result in degradation or damage to the system.
Your vehicle is equipped with a filter; the access door is located behind
the glove box.
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.
Have the filter replaced at regular intervals. See theScheduled
Maintenancechapter.
For additional information, or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.
REMOTE START (IF EQUIPPED)
The remote start feature allows you to pre-condition the interior of your
vehicle. The climate control system works to achieve comfort according
to your previous settings.
Note:You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation.
Turn the ignition on to return the system to its previous settings. You
can now make adjustments normally, but you need to turn certain
vehicle-dependent features back on, such as:
•Heated seats.
•Cooled seats.
•Heated steering wheel.
•Heated mirrors.
•Heated rear window.
You can adjust the default remote start settings using the information
display controls. See theInformation Displayschapter.

Automatic Climate Systems
Automatic Settings
You can set the climate control to operate in AUTO mode through the
information display setting: Remote Start > Climate Control > Heater –
A/C > Auto. The climate control system automatically sets the interior
temperature to 72°F (22°C).
In hot weather, the system is set to 72°F (22°C). Cooled seats are set to
high (if available, and selected to AUTO in the information display).
In moderate weather, the system either heats or cools (based on
previous settings). The rear defroster, heated mirrors and heated/cooled
seats are not automatically turned on.
In cold weather, the system is set to 72°F (22°C). The heated seats and
heated steering wheel are set to high (if available, and selected to AUTO
in the information display). The rear defroster and heated mirrors are
automatically turned on.
Last Settings
You can set the climate control to operate using the last climate control
settings through the information display setting: Remote Start > Climate
Control > Heater – A/C > Last Settings. The climate control system
automatically uses the settings last selected before the vehicle was
turned off.
Heated and Cooled Devices
The climate control system controls other heated and cooled devices
inside the vehicle. These devices (if available, and selected to AUTO in
the information displays) may also be switched on during remote start.
Heated devices are typically switched on during cold weather, and cooled
devices during hot weather.

To operate the heated seats:
Press the heated seat symbol located on the touchscreen
to cycle through the various heat settings and off. Warmer
settings are indicated by more indicator lights.
If the engine falls below 350 RPM while the heated seats are on, the
feature will turn itself off. You will need to reactivate it.
Cooled Seats
The cooled seats will only function when the engine is running.
To operate the cooled seats:
Press the cooled seat symbol located on the touchscreen to
cycle through the various cooling settings and off. Cooler
settings are indicated by more indicator lights.
If the engine falls below 350 RPM while the cooled seats are on, the
feature will turn itself off. You will need to reactivate it.
Heated and Cooled Seat Air Filter Replacement (If Equipped)
The climate controlled seat system includes air filters. You must replace
them periodically. See thescheduled maintenance information.
Locate the filters under each front seat and access them from the
second-row foot-well area. Move the front seats all the way forward and
to the full up positions to ease access.
To remove an air filter:
1. Turn the vehicle off.
2. Push up on the outside rigid edge
of the filter and rotate
counterclockwise once the tabs are
released, then remove the filter.
