MAX A/C: 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.
M
A/C: Press the button to turn 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 A/C with recirculated air to improve cooling
performance and efficiency.

HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: You may feel a small amount of air
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windshield. Manual Climate Control
Note:
To reduce fogging of the windshield
during humid weather, adjust the air
distribution control to the windshield air
vents position.
Automatic Climate Control
Note: Adjusting the settings when your
vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold is
not necessary. The system automatically
adjusts to heat or cool the cabin to your
selected temperature as quickly as possible.
For the system to function efficiently, the
instrument panel and side air vents should
be fully open.
Note: At low ambient temperatures with
AUTO selected, the system directs airflow
to the windshield and side window vents
and fan may run at a slow speed until the
engine warms up.

HEATED WINDOWS AND
MIRRORS (IF EQUIPPED)
Heated Rear Window
Note: You must switch the ignition on to
use this feature. Press the button to clear the rear window
of thin ice and fog. Press the button again
within 10 minutes to switch it off. It
switches off automatically after 10
minutes, or when you switch the ignition
off.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp
objects to clean the inside of the rear
window or to remove decals from the
inside of the rear window. This may
cause damage to the heated grid lines.
Your warranty does not cover this
damage.
126
Fusion/Mondeo (CC7) Climate Control

Heated Exterior Mirror (If Equipped)
Note: Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or attempt to readjust the
mirror glass that has frozen in place. These
actions could cause damage to the glass
and mirrors.
Note: Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.
The heated mirrors remove ice, mist and
fog when you switch on the heated rear
window.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air
filter. It is located behind the glove box.
The particulate filtration system reduces
the concentration of airborne particles
such as dust, spores and pollen in the air
supplied to the interior of your vehicle.
Note: Make sure you have a cabin air filter
installed at all times. This prevents foreign
objects from entering the system. Running
the system without a filter in place could
result in degradation or damage to the
system.
The particulate filtration system gives you
and your passengers the following
benefits:
• It improves your driving comfort by
reducing particle concentration.
• It improves the interior compartment
cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control
components from particle deposits.
Replace the filter at regular intervals. See
Scheduled Maintenance
(page 428).
For additional cabin air filter information,
or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer. REMOTE START
(IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system adjusts the
cabin temperature during remote start.
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.
You need to turn certain
vehicle-dependent features back on, such
as:
• heated seats
• heated mirrors
• heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the
information display controls. See
Information Displays
(page 83).
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).
In moderate weather, the system either
heats or cools (based on previous
settings). The rear defroster, heated
mirrors and heated seats do not
automatically turn on.
In cold weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The heated seats are set to high
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the
information display). The rear defroster
and heated mirrors automatically turn on.
127
Fusion/Mondeo (CC7) Climate Control

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 you turned
off the engine.
Heated and Cooled Devices
The climate control system controls other
heated and cooled devices inside the
vehicle. You can switch these devices on
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the
information displays) during remote start.
Heated devices usually switch on during
cold weather, and cooled devices during
hot weather.

HEATED SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
People who are unable to feel pain
to their 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 heated
seat. The heated seat 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. This
may cause the heated seat to overheat.
Do not puncture the seat with pins, needles
or other pointed objects. This may damage
the heating element which may cause the
heated seat to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury. Do not do the following:
•
Place heavy objects on the seat.
• Operate the heated seat if water or any
other liquid is spilled on the seat. Allow
the seat to dry thoroughly.
• Operate the heated seats unless the
engine is running. Doing so can cause
the battery to lose charge. Press the heated seat symbol to cycle
through the various heat settings and off.
Warmer settings are indicated by more
indicator lights. VENTILATED SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
The ventilated seats will only function
when the engine is running.
To operate the ventilated seats: Press the ventilated seat symbol 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 ventilated seats are on, the feature will
turn itself off and will need to be
reactivated.
Heated and ventilated seat air
filter replacement (if equipped)
The climate controlled seat system
includes air filters. You must replace them
periodically.
The filters are located under each front
seat. You can 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.
