Both mirrors are heated to remove ice, mist and fog when the rear
window defroster is activated.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Note: A screen or filter must be installed at all times to prevent foreign
objects from entering the system. Running the system without a screen
or filter in place could result in degradation or damage to the system.
Your vehicle is equipped with either a screen or filter; it is located
behind the instrument panel.
The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the
concentration of airborne particles, such as dust, spores and pollen, in
the air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. The particulate
filtration system gives the following benefits to customers:
• Improves the customer’s driving comfort by reducing particle
concentration.
• Improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
• Protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
Vehicles without a cabin air filter have a screen which can be washed
clean at periodic intervals.
Vehicles with a cabin air filter should have the filter replaced at regular
intervals. See the Scheduled Maintenance chapter.
For additional information, or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.
