NOTICE:
If the air cleaner/filter is off, a backfire can
cause a damaging engine fire. And, dirt can
easily get into your engine, which will damage it.
Always have the air cleaner/filter in place when
you’re driving.
Passenger Compartment Air Filter
The passenger compartment air filter is located
underneath your hood below the windshield wiper
arm, on the passenger’s side (below the air inlet grille)
of the vehicle.
The filter traps most of the pollen from the air entering
the air conditioning module. Like your engine’s air
cleaner/filter, it may need to be changed periodically.
For information on how often to change the passenger
compartment air filter, see “Maintenance Schedule” in
the Index.
To change the passenger compartment air filter, use the
following steps:
1. Turn off the ignition when the windshield wipers are
in the up position.
2. Raise the hood.
3. Disconnect the windshield washer pump hose from
the fender rail and air inlet grille.
4. Remove the hood weatherstrip from the passenger’s
side of the vehicle (peel back halfway to center).
5. Remove the three air inlet grille retainers.
6. Remove the air inlet grille.
