136 Climate Control E. MAX A/C: Distributes recirculated air through the instrument panel vents to cool the vehicle. This position is more economical and efficient than normal A/C. F. A/C: Press the button to turn air conditioning on or off. Air conditioning cools the vehicle using outside air. To improve air conditioning when starting your vehicle, drive with the windows slightly open for two to three minutes. Use A/C with recirculated air to improve cooling performance and efficiency. Note: A/C turns on automatically in MAX A/C, Defrost and Floor/Defrost. G. Power: Press to turn the system on and off. When the system is off, outside air is prevented from entering the vehicle. H. AUTO: Press the button to turn on fully automatic operation. Select the desired temperature using the temperature control. The system automatically determines fan speed, air distribution, A/C operation, and outside or recirculated air, to heat or cool the vehicle to maintain the selected temperature. I. Rear defrost: Turns the heated rear window on and off. Refer to Heated rear window later in this chapter for more information. If your vehicle is equipped with heated mirrors, this button turns them on also. J. Defrost: Distributes air through the windshield defroster vents and de-mister vents. This setting can also be used to defog and clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice. 2013 MKT (mkt) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
