POLLEN FILTER
The filter has the specific capability of fil-
tering external air, thus admitting to the pas-
senger compartment purified air, free from
particles such as dust, pollen, etc.
In addition to the above mentioned func-
tions, is also reduces the concentration of
pollutants.
The filtering action takes place under all
air inlet conditions and it is clearly most ef-
fective with the windows shut.
Have the conditions of the filter checked
by Alfa Romeo Authorised Services at least
once a year, preferably at the onset of sum-
mer.
If the car is used mainly in dusty or pol-
luted areas it should be checked and, if nec-
essary, replaced at shorter intervals.
The failure to replace the
filter may considerably re-
duce the effectiveness of
the climate control system up to
blocking the air flow from the out-
lets and vents.
