Ventilation Tips
Keep the hood and front air inlet free of ice, snow or
any other obstruction (such as leaves). The heater
and defroster will work far better, reducing the
chance of fogging the inside of the windows.
Keep the air path under the front seats clear
of objects. This helps circulate air throughout
your vehicle.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
Passenger compartment air, both outside air and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger compartment
filter, which is part of a three
-piece filter system. The
carbon
-treated filter removes certain contaminants from
the air, including pollen and dust particles. Reductions in
airflow, which may occur more quickly in dusty areas,
indicate that the filter needs to be replaced.The filter is located inside the air control module, with
an access panel under the instrument panel near the
accelerator pedal. The filter should be replaced as part
of routine scheduled maintenance. See ªMaintenance
Scheduleº in the Index for replacement intervals. See
your dealer for assistance when changing the filter.
Your vehicle will not be damaged if you choose not to
replace the filter once the old one is removed.
