Kia Forte: Manual 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 or
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 inspected by an authorized
Kia dealer.
