If your Model Y is equipped with the medical-grade HEPA (High Eciency Particulate Air)
filter, this filter ensures the best quality air inside the cabin whenever the climate control
system is on and outside air is entering the cabin (recirculate is o). The HEPA filter is
extremely eective at removing particles, including pollution, allergens, bacteria, pollen,
mold spores, and viruses. Both the HEPA
filter and the secondary filtration system also
contain activated carbon to remove a broad spectrum of odors and gases. When you
engage Bioweapon Defense Mode, the positive pressure inside the cabin minimizes the
amount of outside air that can enter the vehicle.
NOTE: Some gases, such as carbon monoxide, are not eectively removed by activated
carbon.
