Rear Air Outlets
The outlet behind the driver side rear seat is for the cold
air return. Be sure to keep it free from obstructions.
Also, keep the area around the base of the center
instrument panel console, between and under the front
seats, free of objects that could also obstruct airow
to the rear seating area.
For more information on how to use the main climate
control system, seeDual Climate Control System
on page 3-27. For information on ventilation,
seeOutlet Adjustment on page 3-30.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
Passenger compartment air, both outside and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger
compartment lter. The lter removes most particles
from the air, including dust particles. Reductions in
airow, which may occur more quickly in dusty areas,
indicate that the lter needs to be replaced early.
For how often to change the air lter, seeScheduled
Maintenance on page 6-4.The access panel for the passenger compartment air
lter is located in the back of the glove box. To replace
the lter, do the following:
1. Pull the tab located on the outer access panel up
and out.

2. Then push the tab, located on the left of the inner
access panel, to the right.
3. The rst air lter will pull straight out. To remove
the second, reach in and slide it toward the
opening. Pull the second lter out.4. Replace the lters by reversing Step 3. Make sure
the lters are inserted so that the sealing foam is
angled in the same direction on both lters. For
the type of lter to use, seeNormal Maintenance
Replacement Parts on page 6-13.
5. Close the inner access door, while squeezing the
tab. Be sure it is tightly closed.
6. Snap the outer access panel into the back of the
glove box.
