climate control LINCOLN MKX 2014 Owner's Manual

Using the Touch-sensitive Controls on Your System
To turn a feature on and off, just touch the graphic with your finger. To
get the best performance from the touch-sensitive controls, keep in
mind:
•Do not press hard on the controls. They are sensitive to light touch.
•Use your bare finger to touch the center of a touch-control graphic.
Touching off-center of the graphic may affect operation of a nearby
control.
•Make sure your hands are clean and dry.
•Keep metal and other conductive material away from the surface of
the touchscreen as this may cause electronic interference (for
example, inadvertently turning on a feature other than the one you
meant to turn on).
Depending on your vehicle and option package, you may also have these
controls on your bezel:
•Power: Switch the media or climate features off and on.
•VOLand fan slider bars: Slide your finger over the rear slider area to
control the volume of playing media or the climate system fan.
•Seek and Tune buttons: Use as you normally would in media modes.
•Eject: Eject a CD from the entertainment system.
•SOURCE:Touch the word repeatedly to see all available media
modes. The screen does not change, but you see the media change in
the lower left status bar.
•SOUND:Touch the word to access the Sound menu where you can
adjust settings such as: Bass, Treble, Midrange, Balance and Fade,
THX Deep note Demo, DSP (Digital Signal Processing), Occupancy
Mode and Speed Compensated Volume. (Your vehicle may not have
all of these sound options.)
•Hazard flasher: Switch the hazard flashers off and on.
Cleaning the Touchscreen Display
Use a clean, soft cloth such as one used for cleaning glasses. If dirt or
fingerprints are still visible, apply a small amount of alcohol to the cloth.
Do not pour or spray alcohol onto the display. Do not use detergent or
any type of solvent to clean the display.
