Cabin air filter

Cabin air filter  - Climate Controls - Lincoln MKZ Owners Manual - Lincoln MKZ

Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air filter, located behind the glove box. The particulate air filtration system is designed to reduce the concentration of airborne particles such as dust, spores and pollen in the air being supplied to the interior of the vehicle. This system provides the following benefits:
• Improves driving comfort by reducing particle concentration.
• Improves the interior compartment cleanliness.
• Protects the climate control components from particle deposits.

Note: A cabin air filter must be installed at all times to prevent foreign objects from entering the system. Running the system without a filter in place could result in degradation or damage to the system.

For replacement intervals, refer to the Scheduled Maintenance chapter.

For more information regarding your filter, see your authorized dealer.
