CABIN AIR FILTER

Note: Make sure you have a cabin air filter 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.
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air filter, which is located just in
front of the windshield under the cowl grille on the passenger side of
your vehicle.
The particulate air filtration system reduces the concentration of
airborne particles, such as dust, spores and pollen, in the air supplied to
the interior of your vehicle. The particulate filtration system gives the
following benefits to customers:
• Improves the customer's driving comfort by reducing particle
concentration.
• Improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
• Protects the climate control components from particle deposits.
For more information regarding the interval at which you should replace
the cabin air filter, see the Scheduled Maintenance chapter.
For additional cabin air filter information, or to replace the filter, see an
authorized dealer.
REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system adjusts the cabin temperature during remote
start.
You cannot adjust the system during remote start operation. In addition,
the SYNC display and other displays remain blank during remote start
operation. Turn the ignition on to return the system to its previous
settings. You can now make adjustments. You will need to turn certain
vehicle-dependent features back on, such as:
• heated seats
• cooled seats
• heated steering wheel
• heated mirrors
• heated rear window.
You can adjust the settings using the information display controls.
See the Information Displays chapter.
