FORD 2011 Edge v.2 - Manual (Page 63)

2. (Recirculated air): Touch to activate/deactivate air recirculation
in the vehicle. Recirculated air may reduce the amount of time needed to
cool down the interior of the vehicle and may also help reduce undesired
odors from reaching the interior of the vehicle. Recirculated air engages
automatically when MAX A/C is selected or can be engaged manually in
any airflow mode except
(defrost). Recirculated air may turn off
automatically in all airflow modes except MAX A/C to reduce fog
potential.
3. MAX A/C: Distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel
vents to cool the vehicle. This re-cooling of the interior air is more
economical and efficient. Recirculated air may also help reduce
undesirable odors from entering the vehicle. Touch MAX A/C again for
normal A/C operation.
4. A/C control: Touch to activate/deactivate air conditioning. Use with
recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. Engages
automatically in MAX A/C,
(defrost) and (floor/defrost).
5. / (Power/Fan control): Touch to activate/deactivate the
climate control system. When the system is off, outside air is prevented
from entering the vehicle through the vents. Turn to increase or
decrease fan speed.
6. AUTO: Touch to engage full automatic operation. Select the desired
temperature using the temperature control. The system will
automatically determine fan speed, airflow distribution, A/C on or off,
and outside or recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle in order to
reach the desired temperature.
7. R (Rear defroster): Touch to activate/deactivate the rear defroster.
This button will also activate/deactivate the heated mirrors (if equipped).
Refer to Rear window defroster later in this chapter for more
information.
8. (Defrost): Distributes outside air through the windshield
defroster vents and demister vents. Can be used to clear the windshield
of fog and thin ice. The system will automatically provide outside air to
reduce window fogging. Touch this button again to return to the previous
air flow selection. To return to full automatic control, touch AUTO.
9. Driver temperature control: Touch to increase (+) or decrease (-)
the temperature on the driver side of the vehicle. If the passenger
temperature controls are not activated (dual zone), the driver’s settings
will determine the temperature setting for the entire vehicle cabin.
