Interior Air Quality System

Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully automatic air quality system that removesgases and particles to reduce odors and con-taminants in the passenger compartment.
IAQS is part of the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) and removes air contaminantssuch as particles, hydrocarbons, nitric oxidesand ground-level ozone. If the system's air quality sensors detect con- taminants in the outside air, the air intakecloses and air recirculation is activated.
NOTE
To ensure optimal air quality in the passen- ger compartment, the air quality sensorshould always be engaged. Recirculation is limited in cold weather to prevent fogging. In the event of fogging, use the defroster functions for the windshield, side windowsand rear window.
