Note:
The system may limit the maximum
difference between driver and passenger
settings. Whenever you make an adjustment
that would result in a larger difference, both
settings change together.
Defrost
Press to distribute air through the
windshield air vents and de-mister. Air
distribution to the instrument panel and
footwell vents turns off. You can also use
this setting to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice.
Max Defrost
Press to switch on defrost. The left-hand
and right-hand settings set to HI, air flows
through the windshield vents, and the fan
adjusts to the highest speed. You can also
use this setting to defog and clear the
windshield of a thin covering of ice. The
heated rear window also turns on when
you select maximum defrost.
Note: To prevent window fogging, you
cannot select recirculated air when
maximum defrost is on.
Fan Speed Control
Adjust the volume of air circulated in the
vehicle.
Power
Press to switch the system on and off.
When the system is off, it prevents outside
air from entering the vehicle.
Max A/C
Press for maximum cooling. The left-hand
and right-hand settings set to LO,
recirculated air flows through the
instrument panel vents, air conditioning
turns on and the fan adjusts to the highest
speed. A/C
Press the button to switch the air
conditioning on or off. Use air conditioning
with recirculated air to improve cooling
performance and efficiency.
Note:
In certain conditions (for example,
maximum defrost), the air conditioning
compressor may continue to operate even
though you switch off the air conditioning.
Right-hand Temperature Control
Adjusts the temperature setting on the
right-hand side.
Climate Controlled Seats
Press to cycle through the various climate
controlled seat settings and off. See
Climate Controlled Seats (page 122).
Auto
Press to switch on automatic operation,
then adjust the temperature control to
select the desired temperature. Fan speed,
air distribution, air conditioning operation,
and outside or recirculated air adjust to
heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the
desired temperature. You can also switch
off dual zone mode by pressing and
holding for more than two seconds.
Recirculated Air
Press to switch between outside air and
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 reduce
unwanted odors from entering your vehicle.
Note: Recirculated air may turn off (or
prevent you from switching on) in all air flow
modes except MAX A/C to reduce the risk
of fogging. Recirculation may also turn on
and off in various air distribution control
combinations during hot weather to improve
cooling 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.
Note: To improve the time to reach a
comfortable temperature in hot weather,
drive with the windows open until you feel
cold air through the air vents. 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 interior 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: If you select
AUTO during cold
temperatures, the system directs airflow to
the windshield and side window vents. In
addition, the fan may run at a slower speed
until the engine warms up.
Note: If you select
AUTO during hot
temperatures and the inside of the vehicle
is hot, the system automatically uses
recirculated air to maximize interior cooling.
Fan speed may also reduce until the air
cools.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNING: Sitting improperly, out
of position or with the seatback reclined
too far can take weight off the seat
cushion and affect the decision of the
passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of a
crash. Always sit upright against your
seat back, with your feet on the floor. WARNING:
Do not recline the
seatback too far as this can cause the
occupant to slide under the seatbelt,
resulting in serious injury in the event of
a collision. WARNING:
Do not place objects
higher than the top of the seat backrest.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or crash. When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash. We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seat backrest so that
your torso is more than
30° from the
upright position.
• Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of
10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
seatbelt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
HEAD RESTRAINTS WARNING:
Fully adjust the head
restraint before you operate your vehicle.
This will help minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a crash. Do not
adjust the head restraint when your
vehicle is moving.

Mustang (CZG) Canada/United States of America, Vehicles Built From: 14-05-2018, enUSA, Edition date: 201804, Second-Printing SeatsE68595

WARNING: The adjustable head
restraint is a safety device. Whenever
possible it should be installed and
properly adjusted when the seat is

restraint properly could reduce its
effectiveness during certain impacts. WARNING:
Install the head
restraint properly to help minimize the
risk of neck injury in the event of a crash.
Note: Adjust the seatback to an upright
driving position before adjusting the head
restraint. Adjust the head restraint so that
the top of it is level with the top of your head
and as far forward as possible. Make sure
that you remain comfortable. If you are
extremely tall, adjust the head restraint to
its highest position.
