Kia Carens: Automatic climate control system / Climate control air filter

Kia Carens RP (2013-2018) Owners Manual / Features of your vehicle / Automatic climate control system / Climate control air filter

The climate control air filter installed behind the glove box filters the dust or other pollutants that come into the vehicle from the outside through the heating and air conditioning system. If dust or other pollutants accumulate in the filter over a period of time, the air flow from the air vents may decrease, resulting in moisture accumulation on the inside of the windshield even when the outside (fresh) air position is selected. If this happens, we recommend that the climate control air filter be replaced by an authorized Kia dealer.

✽ NOTICE

Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule. If the vehicle is being driven in severe conditions such as dusty, rough roads, more frequent climate control air filter inspections and changes are required.
When the air flow rate suddenly decreases, we recommend that the system be checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
