Where is the Iveco air conditioning filter located?
2 Answers
Nanjing Iveco's air conditioning filter is located below the glove compartment on the passenger side. To access it, open the glove compartment, grasp both ends with your hands, and lift upwards firmly to remove the cover plate. The air conditioning filter will then be visible and can be replaced. When a car is driven with the air conditioning on, it draws in external air into the cabin. However, this air contains various particles. Without an air conditioning filter, not only will the car's air conditioning system become contaminated and the cooling system's performance degrade, but passengers will also inhale dust, potentially harming their lungs and compromising driving safety. The air conditioning filter serves the following functions: 1. Air filtration: It ensures the filter fits tightly against the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin. 2. Adsorption of impurities: It separates solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air. It also adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, etc., with strong and lasting moisture adsorption capabilities. 3. Ensuring driving safety: It prevents the car windows from fogging up, ensuring clear visibility for drivers and passengers, thus enhancing driving safety. It provides fresh air to the cabin, preventing passengers from inhaling harmful gases and ensuring safe driving. It also effectively sterilizes and deodorizes. 4. Reducing bacterial growth: It maintains clean cabin air, preventing bacterial growth and creating a healthier environment. It effectively separates solid impurities like dust, core powder, and abrasive particles from the air. It also efficiently intercepts pollen, ensuring passengers do not suffer allergic reactions that could affect driving safety.
I remember last time I changed the IVECO's cabin air filter myself, which is located inside the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. Open the glove box, look up and you'll see a small cover or clip. Unscrew it and you'll find the filter slot, usually at the top or on the side. Taking out the old one is quite easy. That time I did it because the AC was blowing a musty smell, and when I checked, the filter was completely black and extremely dirty. Since then, I check it every six months. The filter itself isn't expensive, just buy the compatible model and replace it yourself—the model number can be found in the vehicle manual. A heavily clogged filter can lead to poor air quality inside the car, making you prone to sneezing during long drives, so don't be lazy. If you're not confident in your DIY skills, asking a friend to help is also a quick solution.
