cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control
components from particle deposits.
You can locate the cabin air filter behind
the glove box.

installed at all times. This prevents foreign
objects from entering the system. Running
the system without a filter in place could
result in degradation or damage to the
system.
Replace the filter at regular intervals. See

(page 486).
For additional cabin air filter information,
