Passenger Compartment Air Filter
(If Equipped)
Passenger compartment air, both outside and recirculated
air, is routed through a passenger compartment filter,
which is part of a two
- piece filter system. The filter
removes certain contaminants from the air, including
pollen and dust particles, as well as odors such as exhaust
or fuel fumes. Reductions in airflow, which may occur
more quickly in dusty areas, indicate that the filter
needs to be replaced early. For how often to change
the passenger compartment air filter, see “Scheduled
Maintenance” in the Index.
The access panel for the passenger compartment
air filter is located in the back of the glove box.
To replace the filter, do the following:
1. Pull the tab located on the outer access panel up
and out.
