Where is the air conditioning filter element located in the Roewe 550?
2 Answers
The air conditioning filter element in the Roewe 550 is located behind the sealing strip in the engine compartment. The following are the functions of the air conditioning filter element: 1. It ensures that the air filter fits tightly against the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin; 2. It adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, etc., in the air, with strong and long-lasting moisture adsorption; 3. It prevents the car windows from fogging up, ensuring clear visibility for the driver and passengers, and safe driving; it supplies fresh air to the passenger compartment, preventing the inhalation of harmful gases and ensuring driving safety; it effectively sterilizes and deodorizes; 4. It maintains clean air in the passenger compartment, preventing bacterial growth and creating a healthy environment; it effectively separates solid impurities such as dust, powder, and grinding particles in the air; it effectively intercepts powder, ensuring that drivers and passengers do not experience allergic reactions that could affect safe driving.
I've been in this business for many years and have encountered quite a few Roewe 550 owners. The cabin air filter is usually located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. Specifically, after opening the glove compartment door, you'll need to remove the compartment itself - there are typically plastic clips on both sides that can be released with a gentle press or twist of your fingers. Once the compartment is removed, you'll see a rectangular filter cover. Lifting this cover reveals the filter slot. When replacing, remember to empty the glove compartment first to avoid items falling and hurting your hands. The arrow on the new filter should point in the direction of airflow - don't install it backwards. The Roewe 550 uses standard-sized filters that can be purchased affordably at auto parts stores or online. Regular replacement every six months or 10,000 kilometers improves AC efficiency, reduces odors, and protects your lungs. In cities with poor air quality, I recommend changing it more frequently. A dirty filter can also block air ducts and increase fuel consumption - addressing it early saves money and benefits your health.
