Ford 1996 Crown Victoria Manual page 81

The main controls for the climate control system,
clock, and radio are on the instrument panel.
NOTE: Any cleaner or polish that increases the
gloss (shine) of the upper part of the
instrument panel should be avoided.
The dull finish in this area is to help
protect the driver from undesirable
windshield reflection.

control systems. The two systems are:
a manual heating and air conditioning system
an electronic automatic temperature control
system
If you are not sure which system your vehicle
