2017 LINCOLN MKZ Cooling system

MAX A/C: Touch the button to activate and maximize cooling. The driver and passeng\
er temperatures are set to LO, recirculated
air flows through the instrument panel vents, air conditioning automatic\
ally turns on and the fan automatically adjusts to the highest
speed.
A/C:
Touch to switch the air conditioning on or off. Use A/C with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and effic\
iency.
Note:
In certain conditions (for example, Max Defrost), the air conditioning compressor may continue to operate\
even when you
switch the air conditioning A/C button off.
Recirculated air:
Touch to switch the recirculated air on or off. When recirculated air is on, it may reduce the amount of time needed
to cool down the interior (when used with A/C) and help reduce odors f\
rom reaching the interior.
Note:
Recirculatied air may turn off automatically (or the system may preventi\
t from turning on) in all airflow modes except MAX A/C
to reduce risk of fogging. It may also turn on and off automatically in \
Panel or Panel/Floor airflow modes during hot weather in order
to improve cooling efficiency.
Manual airflow distribution controls:
Select these controls individually, together, or with Defrost to direct the air flow to the area
you desire.
I
Panel:
Distributes air through the instrument panel vents.
Floor:
Distributes air through the demister vents, floor vents and rear seat f\
loor vents.

Make sure to change your vehicle
’s oils and
fluids at the specified intervals or in
conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable
way to change fluid for many vehicle
sub-systems during scheduled maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only with
new fluid that is the same as that required
to fill and operate the system or using a
Ford-approved flushing chemical.
