Passenger Compartment Air Filter
Passenger compartment air, both outside and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger
compartment air lter. The lter removes certain
contaminants from the air, including pollen
and dust particles. Reductions in airow, which
may occur more quickly in dusty areas, indicate
that the lter needs to be replaced early. An
air lter is available through your dealer. For how
often to change the air lter, seeScheduled
Maintenance on page 377.The access panel for the air lter is behind the
glove box. To replace the lter, follow these steps:
1. Lower the glove box door and remove the
screw on the right side of the glovebox with
a tool. Slide the arm of the glovebox off.
2. Push each side of the glovebox in and pull
toward you.
