Where is the cabin air filter located in the Dongfeng Fengxing Jingyi X5?
2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Dongfeng Jingyi X5 is located in the engine compartment. Precautions and maintenance for the air conditioning system are as follows: Precautions: When using the car air conditioning daily, avoid running the air conditioning for extended periods without opening the windows, as this may cause carbon monoxide poisoning for passengers. The cabin air filter should be cleaned every 20,000 kilometers to prevent blockages that could reduce heating and cooling efficiency. Air conditioning maintenance: During winter, regularly activate the air conditioning system. In some regions, the air conditioning may not be needed in winter. However, prolonged disuse can cause rubber seals to deteriorate and internal lubricants to dry out. Regular operation ensures proper lubrication of components and maintains system condition. It is recommended to run the air conditioning once a week during winter.
I remember changing the air filter in my Jingyi X5 was quite simple. Generally, the filter is located behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. You need to open the glove compartment, remove any items inside, and then find the clip or small panel at the bottom—just press lightly to pull it out, and inside is the slot for the filter. Don’t worry if it seems complicated for a first-timer; it took me just a few minutes the first time I did it, and the air in the car felt much fresher afterward. I’d recommend checking it every year or every 10,000 kilometers. If it’s clogged with dust, not only will the AC blow slower, but it can also develop strange odors. If the filter is deformed or dirty, you can buy an OEM replacement on Taobao and swap it in yourself, saving a trip to the repair shop. The design is quite user-friendly, cutting costs on professional services, but for beginners, it’s safer to watch video tutorials first.
