2011 3585RL Heating

We just got a new 2011 3585RL.
It has been a bit cold in the mornings, so I set the main thermostat at 66 F.
Even though the interior temp was 70 F, the ceiling unit fan started immediately and stayed on continually.
Eventually, the temperature got low enough for the furnace to kick in, but once the furnace went off, the ceiling unit fan continued to run.
I tested it further by lower the temperature for the furnace to activate, but no matter where I placed the cut-in point, the ceiling unit fan stayed on permanently.
Is this how it is supposed to operate ?
I really don't want the fan running continually just to get a bit of heat in the early morning for those quick trips to the outhouse.
Any suggestions.
Thanks.​

CCCI, to make the furnace run independantly from the AC fan, go to your thermostat and using the "mode" button scroll to fan "auto". That will take care of your problem.
I see by your location that you are near us. We are at Seven Oaks, in Mission.

Peace

Thanks for the advice Dave.
Will see how it works tonight when that cold front comes through the Valley.
Cheers
