160 Seats If the engine falls below 350 RPM while the cooled seats are on, the feature will turn itself off. You will need to reactivate it. Note: When the heated or cooled front seat is active, you will be able to hear the fan operating inside the seat. This is normal. Climate Controlled Seat Air Filter Replacement (If Equipped) The climate controlled seat system includes air filters. You must replace them periodically. See the scheduled maintenance information. Locate the filters under each front seat and access them from the second-row foot-well area. Move the front seats all the way forward and to the full up positions to ease access. To remove an air filter: 1. Turn the vehicle off. 2. Push up on the outside rigid edge of the filter and rotate counterclockwise once the tabs are released, then remove the filter. To install a filter: 1. First, position the filter in its housing making sure that the far forward end is all the way up in the housing. 2. Push in on the center of the outside edge of the filter and rotate up into the housing until it clips into position. 2015 Flex (471) Owners Guide gf, 1st Printing, October 2014 USA (fus)
