Honestly, jumping through all these hoops to simply run a fan, sans AC, is ridiculous. I'll take my old analog buttons and sliders any day, thank you. Same for audio controls.
They were designed to be run from the steering wheel buttons. The MFD is more of a backup system for fine tuning, or allowing a passenger to play. I never touch my MFD for audio or climate.

It's somewhat confusing trying to figure out how people get confused in the first place, but the solution shouldn't be.

With A/C pressed off, select fan speed, then drop the temp to "MAX COLD". That gives outside air only.

Bumping the temp up one push (to 65), returns you to a mix of outside air that passes through the heater core.
