thermostat question

   I should know the answer to this as it was probably explained last August when we did the walk through but, "How does one set the thermostat to AUTO?"  I read the FR owners guide but it didn't help and none of the owners manuals seem to be for the thermostat.  This is in a 2017 R179HE.   We didn't do any winter camping but now with summer approaching, we have been out a couple of times,  

Weather has been warm enough to need the AC and cool enough at night and in the morning to need the heater.   But, when I turn on the furnace, the AC starts to blow also.  I read on this forum that the solution is to turn the thermostat to AUTO but I can't figure out how to do it.

We have been fortunate to be in sites with water and electric so jave used a small electric heater but I don't think I can always rely on this.

	Change the mode to Fan and use the up/down buttons to select AU. Then change the mode to AC or heat; the fan setting will be used across all three modes.
