Filter Inspection

The cabin air filter should be replaced in accordance with the Maintenance Schedule. If the vehicle is operated in severely polluted city air or on dusty, rough roads for a long period, it should be inspected more often and replaced earlier. When replacing the cabin air filter, replace it by performing the following procedures and be careful to avoid damaging other components.

1. Open the glove box and remove the stoppers on both sides.

2. With the glove box open, pull the support strap (1).

3. Remove the climate control air filter cover by pressing the locks on both sides of the cover.

4. Replace the cabin air filter.

5. Reassemble in the reverse order of disassembly.

When replacing the climate control air filter, install it correctly. Otherwise, the system may make noise and the filter efficiency may be reduced.
