4. Principis de funcionament

The WIX WP10009 Cabin Air Filter operates as a passive filtration device within your vehicle's HVAC system. As air is drawn from outside the vehicle into the cabin, it passes through the filter's pleated media. This media traps contaminants, allowing only cleaner air to circulate inside the passenger compartment. The filter's effectiveness is maintained as long as the media is not saturated with particles, which is why regular replacement is necessary.

5. Manteniment

To ensure optimal performance of your vehicle's HVAC system and maintain healthy cabin air quality, regular maintenance of the cabin air filter is recommended.

• Interval de substitució: It is generally recommended to replace the cabin air filter every 12,000 to 15,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first. However, this interval can vary based on driving conditions (e.g., dusty environments, heavy traffic) and your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.

  • Unpleasant or musty odors coming from the HVAC system.
  • Increased fan noise as the system works harder to push air through a clogged filter.
  • Excessive dust accumulation on interior surfaces.
