tomo2001 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 To all owners with 2011 Focus' with Climate Control. Can you get yours to display MONO rather than AUTO as per the manual description ? If I adjust the Drivers side controls both the driver and passenger temperatures adjust. If I adjust the Passenger control, only the passenger side adjusts as expected. (Holding the AUTO button synchronises the Passenger and Drivers settings again). However the Climate Control unit always displays AUTO, it never switches to MONO. Perhaps its just another vague insrtuction in the very vague manual ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuke Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hi, does your manual say this: To switch mono mode off: Select a temperature for the passenger’s side with the rotary control on the passenger’s side. Mono mode will switch off and MONO disappears from the display. The temperature for the driver’s side will remain unchanged. You can now adjust the driver and passenger side temperatures independently of each another. The temperature settings for each side are shown in the display. You can set a temperature difference of up to 4ºC (7°F). Note: If you set a temperature difference of greater than 4ºC (7°F), the temperature on the other side will be adjusted so that the difference remains 4ºC (7°F). Note: If you set one of the sides to HI or LO, both sides will be set to HI or LO. To switch mono mode back on: To switch mono mode back on, press and hold the AUTO button. MONO reappears in the display and the passenger’s side temperature will be adjusted to the driver’s side temperature. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuke Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hi, I can't try mine yet so I guess that you need to seek advice from the dealership if it isn't working the way it should.... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris It appears to work ok, function wise but just doesn't display the MONO text ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drmoore Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Hold you're finger on the auto button for a few seconds then mono will be displayed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomo2001 Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 Ok, read manual again and again, tried climate again and again. Deffo no MONO mode. Drove past local dealers today and he has brand new Titanium model in prep for Thursday. Asked to see the climate in operation and no MONO message on that car either. Salesman reckons it is the manual that is incorrect, and says it is not unusual as things get lost in translation etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuke Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Hi, true, no big deal anyway. I remember the manual for the mondeo describing the A/C in the glovebox, however it isn't fitted in my car at all. There is a clause on the front pages that says this: "The information contained in this publication was correct at the time of going to print.

cuke Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Hi, nope, holding down the auto button does not result in 'mono' being displayed. Yet to test the start stop... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomo2001 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 So the AUTO - MONO debate continues............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuke Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Hi, to me there is no need for any further debate as it is something I will not be using. Maybe in the future Ford will release a update, who knows... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomo2001 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 Why an update, seems some owners have it and some don't yet it is the same system. Very strange ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
focusdriver Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Just for your info my Focus Titanium registered in November 2012 does this too. Holding the Auto button allows both temperatures to be set from the drivers control, but MONO isn't displayed, even though the manual says it should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
