How to turn off AC
 
I have a 2015 SL400 and can't figure out how to torn AC off. Can anyone help?

My 2014 SL550 has a button on the climate control that says "AC" with a small red light.

Press this till the light goes off, and the climate control will operate as normal but will not enable the AC compressor. So if you're driving top down and don't want the AC to come on, you can push this button. Other functions including ventilation work completely normal other than the AC compressor not running.

Thank you so much! I didn't word that correctly. Sorry what I meant was how do I turn the fan off as well? When I hit the AC button and the red light goes off stand still remains at 1 "bar".

Notice there are (2) large black buttons on either side of the climate control area. The the large button on the left says 'Auto', while the large button on the right side says 'ZONE' .

When you look closely at the 'Zone' button on the right side, you'll see the word 'OFF' is printed on the LOWER PART OF THAT ZONE BUTTON.

Pressing 'OFF' (lower part of the Zone Button), WILL TURN THE ENTIRE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM OFF, INCLUDING THE A/C AND THE FAN!.

Note #1 - This is normally, the button to press for 'Top Down' Driving on the 231, unless for some reason you actually prefer to keep your Climate Control System 'ON' for top down driving!....:p:

Note #2 - When you are ready to turn your Climate Control System back ON again, just press the 'Auto' Button, (the large black button located on the left side of the 231's Climate Control Area).

80°+ today in suburban Boston; I like a little A/C breeze mixing with the wind sometimes....
