2001 HONDA ODYSSEY air conditioning

µµ
The air conditioning f ilter removes
pollen and dust that is brought in
f rom the outside through the heating
and cooling system/climate control
system.
This f ilter should be replaced every
30,000 miles (48,000 km) under
normal conditions. It should be
replaced every 15,000 miles (24,000
km) if you drive primarily in urban
areas that have high concentrations
of soot in the air f rom industry and
diesel-powered vehicles. Replace it
more of ten if air f low f rom the
heating and cooling system/climate
control system becomes less than
usual. Have the air conditioning f ilter
replaced by your Honda dealer. Check the condition of the two drive
belts (power steering belt and
alternator belt). Examine the edges
of each belt f or cracks or f raying.If you see signs of wear or looseness,
have your dealer adjust or replace
the belts.

Check the tension of the power
steering belt by pushing on it with
your thumb midway between the
