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

H 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
odours from entering your vehicle.
I Off button: Press the button to switch the system off.
J Heated rear window: Press the button to defog and clear the rear window of
a thin covering of ice.
K Footwell: Press the button to distribute air through the footwell air vents.
L AUTO: Press the button to select automatic operation. The system
automatically controls the temperature, amount and distribution of the airflow
to reach and maintain your previously selected temperature.
Temperature Control
You can set the temperature between 61°F
(16°C) and 82°F (28°C) in steps of 1°F
(0.5°C). In position low, the system
switches to permanent cooling. In position
high, the system switches to permanent
heating.
Note: If you select either position low or
high, the system will not regulate a stable
temperature.

HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: A small amount of air may be felt
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.
Note: Do not place objects under the front
seats as this may interfere with the airflow
to the rear seats.
Note: Remove any snow, ice or leaves from
the air intake area at the base of the
windscreen.
Manual Climate Control
Note: To reduce fogging of the windscreen
during humid weather, adjust the air
distribution control to the windscreen air
vents position. Increase the temperature
and fan speed to improve clearing, if
required.
