Description and Operation

Pollen filter

The fresh air flowing into the vehicle through the air inlet housing passes through a pollen
filter which is located on the left-hand side of the climate control housing (LHD and RHD)
and removes pollen and dust particles measuring 0.003 mm or more.

The pollen filter must be changed at intervals in accordance with the service schedule.

A special production pollen filter is installed in the factory, and this must be cut through
when the filter is changed. The service pollen filter is flexible and can be pushed together
during installation or removal.
