CLIMATE CONTROL AIR FILTER (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control air filter installed
behind the glove box filters the dustor other pollutants that come into the
vehicle from the outside through theheating and air conditioning system.
If dust or other pollutants accumulate
in the filter over a period of time, the
air flow from the air vents may
decrease, resulting in moisture accu-
mulation on the inside of the wind-
shield even when the outside (fresh)
are position is selected. If this hap-
pens, have the climate control air fil-
ter replaced by an Authorized Kia
Dealer. The climate control air filter should
be replaced every 15,000 km. If the
vehicle is operated in the severelyair-polluted cities or on dusty rough
roads for a long period, it should beinspected more frequently and
replaced earlier. When you try toreplace the climate control air filter
by owner maintenance, replace it
performing the following procedure,
and in this case, be careful to avoid
damaging other components.
Filter replacement
1. With the glove box open, removethe stoppers on both sides to allow
