Climate Controls To allow side window defogging and demisting while warming up the vehicle cabin: 1. Select . 2. Select A/C. 3. Set the temperature control to maintain comfort. 4. Set the fan speed to the highest setting. 5. Direct the outer instrument panel vents towards the side windows. To increase airflow to the outer instrument panel vents, close the vents located in the middle of the instrument panel. Do not place objects on top of the instrument panel as these objects may become projectiles in a collision or sudden stop. Heated Windshield Control (if equipped) The heated windshield control is located on the instrument panel just under the climate controls. To activate the heated windshield, the engine must be running while the heated windshield control is pushed. Once activated, a small light on the button will illuminate. Note: During initial start-up, the windshield may have a shimmering appearance. This is normal operation and will only last for approximately 1 minute. The heated windshield will turn off automatically after: • a period of up to 8 minutes, when the outside air temperature is below 40 °F, • a period of up to 4 minutes when the outside air temperature is 40 °F or above, or • when the engine is turned off. To manually turn off the heated windshield before the specified time has passed, push the control switch again. Note: Pushing the heated windshield button to activate the system will increase engine idle speed when the engine is warm and is already at or near its warmed up idle rpm. No increase in engine rpm will be noticed if the engine is cold and running at higher rpms associated with cold starts. This rpm increase is required to provide adequate power from the alternator to the heated windshield and maintain power to the other electrical functions in the vehicle. 76 2007 07+ Explorer Sport Trac (esp) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
