Where is the Cabin Air Filter Located in the Beidou Star Car?
2 Answers
The original Beidou Star car does not come with a cabin air filter, but it has a reserved space for installing one. The specific location is: remove the glove compartment on the passenger side, and you will see a black box resembling a fan. Unscrew the screws on the black box, remove it, and the cabin air filter is placed inside. Below is relevant information about the cabin air filter: 1. When the car draws in external air while driving, the presence of a cabin air filter can isolate various particles in the air, including dust and pollen. 2. Without a cabin air filter, these particles can enter the cabin, polluting the car's air conditioning system and reducing the performance of the cooling system. Additionally, inhaling these particles may cause allergic reactions. 3. There are two types of cabin air filters used in cars: one without activated carbon and one with activated carbon. The activated carbon filter can also absorb a significant amount of odors. 4. The replacement cycle for the cabin air filter is generally every 10,000 kilometers driven, and it cannot be cleaned with water.
I've been driving my Beidou Star for many years and have replaced the cabin air filter myself several times. It's located on the passenger side, specifically hidden behind the glove box - you need to remove the glove box first, unscrew or unclip it, and there's a small compartment where the filter is inserted. The replacement is quite easy, just remember not to pull too hard to avoid damaging the parts. When the filter gets dirty, the air in the car becomes polluted, making it easy to cough and sneeze, so replacing it before pollen season makes for a more comfortable ride. I recommend doing it every six months, buying a good quality filter that matches the model, which can be easily purchased online. Doing it yourself saves worry and money, and the air blown out by the AC becomes much fresher, which is also good for your health.
