Climate Controls A/C, recirculation controls, set the temperature to 60 °F (16 °C) and the fan to highest blower setting. 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." Do not put objects under the front seats that will interfere with the airflow. Remove any snow, ice or leaves from the air intake area at the base of the windshield. With the ignition in the OFF position after operating the vehicle, some vehicle sounds related to the climate control system may be heard. Approximately two minutes after key off, the air distribution doors may adjust their positions as part of the normal operating process. Demisters, located at the far left and right sides of the dash, usually blow out a small amount of airflow in order to reduce side window fogging. Outboard panel registers, located at the left and right sides of the dash, blow out a small amount of airflow when in (floor), (defrost) modes. This also reduces side (floor/defrost), and window fogging. Do not place items over the climate temperature sensor grid. This may cause improper operation of the system. • To aid in side window defogging/demisting in cold weather: 1. Select . 2. Ensure that recirculation is disengaged. 3. Set the temperature control to full heat. 4. Set the fan to the highest speed. 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. 93 2006 Lincoln LS (dew) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
