The indicator will illuminate when the rear window defroster is selected. The ignition must be in the RUN position and the engine running in order to operate the rear window defroster. The rear window defroster turns off automatically after 10 minutes or sooner if a low battery condition is detected, or when the ignition is turned to the OFF position. To manually turn off the rear window defroster before 10 minutes have passed, push the control again. CABIN AIR FILTER Your vehicle is equipped with a Cabin air filter. The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the concentration of airborne particles such as dust, spores and pollen in the air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. The particulate filtration system gives the following benefits to customers: • Improves the customer's driving comfort by reducing particle concentration • Improves the interior compartment cleanliness • Protects the climate control components from particle deposits The filter is located just in front of the windshield under the cowl grille on the passenger side of the vehicle. For more information, or to replace the filter, see your Ford, Lincoln or Mercury Dealer. 57
