FORD 2003 Crown Victoria v.3 - Manual (Page 49)

To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather conditions:
1. Select Vent.
2. Set the temperature control to full heat.
3. Set the fan speed to full fan.
4. Direct the outer panel vents towards the side windows.
5. To increase airflow to the outer panel vents, close the central panel
vents.
Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these
objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop.
ELECTRONIC AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL (EATC)
SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The EATC system will maintain a
selected temperature and
automatically control the fan speed
and airflow location.
Automatic operation
Press Automatic/AUTO and select the desired temperature. The system
will either heat or cool to achieve the selected temperature. The system
will automatically determine fan speed, airflow location and if outside air
or recirculated air is required.
When in automatic operation and weather conditions require heat, the
air will be sent to the floor ducts. However, until the engine has warmed,
the fan speed will operate at a low speed and airflow will be directed to
the windshield defroster ducts. Upon engine warm up, the system will
automatically direct airflow to the floor ducts and operate the required
fan speed to achieve the selected temperature.
If unusual conditions exist (i.e.-window fogging, etc.), the manual
overrides allow you to select airflow locations and the fan speed. To
return to automatic operation, press Automatic/AUTO.
