DIY : Innova Aircon Duct Cleaning / Dashboard Removal

[joey roo]

Mine is 2011 model but I think pareho lang location ng filter for aircon. After removing lower compartment, may makikita kang rectangular na cover at the left side. Naka clip lang un. Look for the clip which locks the cover in place. Push the clip and pull the cover. You can see the filter inside.

Note on sealing the air inlet.

By design, the inlet allows a little bit of outside air into the cabin (even if set to recirculate) for health reasons. It basically allows air from the outside to displace the CO2 build up (which passengers exhale) in the cabin. The bad air typically exits from vents at the rear of the vehicle, usually hidden under the bumper on both rear fenders..

In time, wear and tear on the recirculation flap seals may allow more air to come in than usual. However, going so far as sealing it airtight may not be the best for vehicles that normally carry multiple adults on long trips. The lack of oxygen may contribute to nausea and discomfort in the long haul. A work around is to "air" the cabin every now and then by cracking open the windows for a few seconds during the trip.

pls note that there are other vents in the car. also the design of air vent and flaps makes it a dust catcher.

^ Curious as to where these vents are.

You usually have a cabin filter to take care of most airborne dust.

rear has vents covered with very thick material synthetic materials. older models do not have cabin filters.even with filters not all dust will be filtered so do not even attempt to let outside air in kung ayaw mo maligo sa alikabok lalo na kung matagal mong hindi binuksan ang air vent.
