System Airflow: Defrost
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When DEFROST is selected:
- the Recirc request button is disabled. The air inlet door actuator positions the air inlet door to admit only outside air into the passenger compartment.
- the floor door actuator positions the floor door in the closed position, and the panel/defrost door actuator positions the panel/defrost door to direct airflow to the defrost duct and side window demisters.
- temperature control can be adjusted by directing the airflow through and around the heater core.
- the A/C request button is disabled.
- the A/C compressor will operate automatically if the outside temperature is above 2°C (35°F).
- the blower motor is on.
