Climate Control System Maintenance
If You Don't Use the Climate Control System Regularly To insure oil is circulated in the system, occasionally turn on the A/C or set the defroster mode for several minutes with the engine idling. Dust and Pollen Filter The climate control system is equipped with a dust and pollen filter that collects pollen, dust, and other debris in the air, and removes odors such as diesel gas and tobacco. The maintenance minder messages will let you know when to replace the filter. We recommend that you replace the dust and pollen filter sooner when using your vehicle in areas with high concentrations of dust.
Dust and Pollen Filter
Using an air freshener may reduce the deodorizing effect of the dust and pollen ilter, and may reduce its life. If the airlow from the climate control system deteriorates noticeably, and the windows fog up easily, the ilter may need to be replaced. Please contact a dealer for replacement.
