Air filters – cleaning
Remove and clean the air filter (heater filter) with
water or compressed air to eliminate dust and dirt at
regular intervals (6 months or so).
Clogged filter may cause inefficient heating, and
even malfunction of the blower motor.
WARNING
When cleaning the air filters, wear a dust
mask to avoid inhaling dust. Dust inhalation
can have adverse health effects.
CAUTION
Clean the air filters at shorter intervals if your
vehicle is used frequently in dusty areas.

Disassembly is necessary before the outside air filter
