Cabin Air Filter - Ford 2001 Mercury Cougar Owner's Manual

Controls and features
• Don't put objects under the front
seat that will interfere with airflow
to the back seats.
• Remove any snow, ice or leaves
from the air intake area (at the
bottom of the windshield under the
hood).
• Do not place objects over the
defroster outlets. These objects can
block the airflow and reduce your
ability to see through the
windshield. In addition, avoid
placing small objects on top of your
instrument panel. These objects
can fall into the defroster outlets
and block airflow and possibly
damage your climate control
system.

Cabin air filter

Your vehicle is equipped with an air
filter that removes pollen and road
dust from outside air before it is
directed to the interior of the
vehicle. Refer to the Maintenance
and care chapter for maintenance
of this filter.
Do not place objects on top
of the instrument panel, as
these objects may become
projectiles in a collision or sudden
stop.
