Kia Picanto: Manual climate control system / Climate control air filter

A : Outside air
B : Recirculated air
C : Climate control air filter
D : Blower
E : Evaporator core
F : Heater core
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, have
the climate control air filter replaced by
a professional workshop. Kia recommends
to visit an authorized Kia dealer/
service partner.
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 air
conditioner filter inspections and
changes are required.
- When the air flow rate suddenly
decreases, have the system
checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an
authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
