CLIMATE CONTROL AIR FILTER
Filter inspection
The climate control air filter should
be replaced every 15,000 miles
(24,000 km). If the vehicle is operat-
ed in severely air-polluted cities or on
dusty rough roads for a long period,
it should be inspected more fre-
quently and replaced earlier. When
you replace the climate control air fil-
ter, replace it performing the follow-
ing procedure, and be careful to
avoid damaging other components.
Filter replacement
1.With the glove box open, removethe stoppers on both sides to allow
the glove box to hang freely on the
hinges. 2.Open the glove box and remove
the support strap.
