CLIMATE CONTROL AIR FILTER
Filter inspection
The climate control air filter should be
replaced according to the maintenance
schedule. If the vehicle is operated in
severely air-polluted cities or on dusty
rough roads for a long period, it should
be inspected more frequently and re‐
placed earlier. When you replace the cli‐
mate control air filter, replace it per‐
forming the following procedure, 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 fil‐
ter cover while pressing the lock on
the right side of the cover.
4. Replace the climate control air fil‐
ter.
5. Reassemble in the reverse order of
disassembly.
NOTICE
When replacing the climate control
air filter install it properly. Other‐
wise, the system may produce noise
and the effectiveness of the filter
may be reduced.
