Fresh Air Intake, Removing And Installing: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

NOTE:

Depending on the version, for some countries with high dust levels (for example China), a dust filter -C- is installed in the filter mount -B- instead of the intake grille -A-. The dust filter -C- prevents pollen and sand from getting sucked into the Fresh Air Blower -V2-. Refer to the Parts Information..

Clean the air intake shroud and the area around the dust filter -C- in the plenum chamber before installing a new filter.
