2016 FORD F250 cooling

Touch Rear Control to allow the rear seat passengers to adjust the rear climate
settings. Touch it again to prevent the rear seat passengers from adjusting the
settings.
Rear Control automatically turns off when you use the touchscreen
to adjust the rear climate settings.
Touch + or – to adjust the temperature.
To adjust fan speed, touch + or – next to the fan icon.
Touch
Rear again to close the rear controls. Closing the rear climate control
functions does not affect their current settings.
Recirculated air:
Touch 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.
E
Note:
Recirculated air may turn off automatically (or be prevented from turning
on) in all airflow modes except Max A/C to reduce risk of fogging. Recirculated
air may also turn on and off automatically in Panel or Panel and Floor airflow
modes during hot weather in order to improve cooling efficiency.
MAX A/C: Touch the button to maximize cooling. Recirculated air flows through
the instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatically turns on, and the fan
automatically adjusts to the highest speed.
F
A/C:
Touch the button to switch air conditioning compressor on or off. Use air
conditioning with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency.
G
Note:
In certain conditions (such as when using Max Defrost), the air
conditioning compressor may continue to operate even after you switch off the
air conditioning with the
A/C button.
AUTO:
Touch the button to turn on automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system adjusts fan speed, air
distribution, air conditioning operation, and selects outside air or recirculated
air to heat or cool the vehicle in order to maintain the desired temperature. You
can also use the AUTO button to turn off dual zone operation by touching and
holding the button for more than two seconds.
H
Heated rear window: Turns the heated rear window on and off. See the heated
Windows and Mirrors chapter in your owner manual.
I
Defrost: Press the button to distribute air to the windshield vents and de-mister.
Air distribution to instrument panel and footwell vents turn off. You can use
this setting to defog and clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice.
J
Air distribution control:
Touch these buttons to turn airflow from the
windshield, instrument panel, or footwell vents on or off. The system can
distribute air through any combination of these vents.
