Hints On Controlling The Interior Climate - Ford Edge 2016 Owner's Manual

Note: In certain conditions (for example, maximum defrost), the air conditioning
compressor may continue to operate even though the air conditioning is
switched off.
F Recirculated air: Press the button to switch between outside air and
recirculated air. The air currently in the passenger compartment recirculates.
This can reduce the time needed to cool the interior and reduce unwanted odors
from entering your vehicle.
Note: Recirculated air may also turn on and off automatically in instrument
panel or instrument panel and floor airflow modes during hot weather to improve
cooling efficiency.
G Heated windshield: Press the button to clear the heated windshield of thin
ice and fog. See Heated Windshield (page 120).
H Heated seats: Press the button to switch the heated seats on and off. See
Heated Seats (page 130).
I Power: Press the button to switch the system on and off. When the system is
off, it prevents outside air from entering the vehicle.
J MAX Defrost: Press the button to switch on defrost. Outside air flows through
the windshield vents, air conditioning automatically turns on, and fan
automatically adjusts to the highest speed. You can also use this setting to
defrost and clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice. The heated rear window
also automatically turns on when you select maximum defrost.
Note: To prevent window fogging, you cannot select recirculated air when
maximum defrost is on.
K Defrost: Select to distribute air through the windshield air vents. Air distribution
to the instrument panel and footwell vents turns off. You can also use this
setting to defrost and clear the windshield of a thin covering of ice.
L Heated rear window: Press the button to switch the heated rear window on
and off. See Heated Windows and Mirrors (page 120).
