Windscreen clearing

I've been inspired by Darren's last thread......I noticed last night that if you switch the heater up to the windscreen, it *automatically* starts the air conditioning.

 

I barely ever use the air-con (force of habit but also cos of the fuel economy) and just wanted the already warm, normal heater air pointed at the windscreen.

 

How do I switch this annoying 'feature' off?  Obviously at the moment I'm just pressing the air-con button to switch it off...

 

Yours,

I think when you press the air-to-windows button it assums you are wanting to de-mist them and it selects a temperature (based on outside temp) to de-mist them. 9 times out of 10 that means cooling the inside down and therefore the air-con kicks in.

Quote: from Syed Shah on 6:31 pm on Sep. 28, 2001[br]It should only do this when the air is on re-circ. Just put it to fresh and it won't turn on the A/C. BTW, Eric is right, if u don't run the A/C often enough the compressor seals go. Went on our jag and cost over a grand to fix!

 

Flipping heck!!!!

 

I'm thanking all that's holy I leave mine on after that.
