Kia Soul: Automatic climate control system / Climate control air filter

A : Outside air
B : Recirculated air
C : Climate control air filter
D : Blower
E : Evaporator core
F : Heater core
The climate control air filter installed behind the glove box filters the dust
or other pollutants that come into the vehicle from the outside through the heating
and air conditioning system.
If dust or other pollutants accumulate in the filter over a period of time, the
air flow from the air vents may decrease, resulting in moisture accumulation on
the inside of the windshield even when the outside (fresh) air position is selected.
If this happens, have the climate control air filter replaced by a professional
workshop. Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/ service partner.
NOTICE
- Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule. If the vehicle
is being driven in severe conditions such as dusty or rough roads, more frequent
air conditioner filter inspections and changes are required. • When the air
flow rate suddenly decreases, have the system checked by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
