How can I set my Ford Galaxy's air conditioning to provide a lower temperature?

On my 2004 Ford Galaxy's air conditioning setting 'AUTO', the lowest ambient temp (ambient) is 18 degrees Centigrade. Is there a way of lowering the temp settings?

A specialist might be able to do it, but keeping a Galaxy below 18C will be hard work for the a/c and it will cost you in fuel as well as compressor life.
