To clean the air supplied to the passenger compartment from dust contained in the street air, a filter with a replaceable paper filter element is installed in the heating, air conditioning and ventilation system.
The manufacturer prescribes to replace the cabin filter after 15 thousand kilometers or after 1 year (whichever comes first). In severe operating conditions, it is regulated to check the filter every 3 months or 5 thousand kilometers and replace the filter every 6 months or 8 thousand kilometers.
