Automatic Climate Control - Ford Kuga Owner's Manual

AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL

E91390
The system controls the temperature,
amount and distribution of the air flow
automatically and adjusts them according
to the driving and weather conditions.
Pressing the AUTO button once switches
on the auto mode.
The system in your vehicle is dual-zone
automatic climate control. When the
system is in mono mode, all the
temperature zones are linked to the driver's
zone. When you switch mono mode off,
the dual-zone system allows you to set
different temperatures for the driver's and
front passenger's side.
Note: Avoid adjusting the settings when
the vehicle interior is extremely hot or cold.
The automatic climate control adjusts to
the current circumstances automatically.
For the system to function properly, the side
and centre vents should be fully open.
Note: The sunload sensor is located on top
of the instrument panel. Do not cover the
sensor with any objects.
Note: At low outside temperatures, when
the system is in auto mode, the air stream
will be directed to the windscreen and the
side windows as long as the engine is cold.
Climate Control
Note: For information on the automatic
climate control, on vehicles fitted with a
combined Navigation and automatic
climate control system, see separate
handbook.
Setting the temperature
E91391
You can set the temperature between
15.5ºC (60°F) and 29.5ºC (85°F) in steps
of 0.5ºC (1°F). In position LO, 15ºC (59°F),
the system will switch to permanent
cooling. In position HI, 30°C (86°F), the
system will switch to permanent heating.
Note: If either position LO or HI is selected,
the system will not regulate a stable
temperature.
Mono mode
In mono mode, the temperature settings
for both the driver's and passenger's side
are linked. If you adjust the temperature
using the rotary control on the driver's side,
the settings will be adjusted to the same
setting on the passenger's side. In mono
mode, MONO appears in the display.
