Maintenance
Filter Inspection
The climate control air filter should
be replaced according to the
Maintenance Schedule. If the vehicle
is operated in severely air-polluted
cities or on dusty rough roads for a
long period, it should be inspected
more frequently and replaced earlier.
When you replace the climate control
air filter, replace it performing the fol-
lowing procedure, and be careful to
avoid damaging other components.
1. Open the glove box and removethe support pin (1).
2. With the glove box open, remove the stoppers on both sides. 3. Remove the climate control air fil-
ter case while pressing the lock on
the left side of the cover.
4. Replace the climate control air fil- ter.
5. Reassemble in the reverse order of disassembly.
Install a new climate control air fil-
ter in the correct direction with the
arrow symbol ( ↓ ↓) facing down-
wards. Otherwise, the climate con-
trol effects may decrease, possi-
bly with a noise.
