Operating tips • To reduce fog build up on the windshield during humid weather, place the air flow selector in the position. • To reduce humidity build up inside the vehicle: do not drive with the engaged. system off or with recirculated air • Under normal weather conditions, do not leave the air flow selector in or with the system off when the A/C and recirculated air vehicle is parked. This allows the vehicle to "breathe" using the outside air inlet vents. • To improve the A/C cool down, drive with the windows slightly open for 2-3 minutes after start up or until the vehicle has been "aired out". • During extreme high ambient temperatures when idling stationary for extended periods of time in gear, it is recommended to run the A/C selected, turn off the rear A/C unit, reduce with recirculation mode blower fan speed from the highest setting and put the vehicle's transmission into the P (Park) position to continue to receive cool air from your A/C system. 111 2010 Expedition (exd) Owners Guide (own2002), 1st Printing USA (fus)
