Air quality
Materials used in the passenger compartment
The materials in the passenger compartment are designed to be pleasant and comfortable, even for people with asthma or allergies.
The materials have been developed and tested to reduce dust in the passenger compartment and make it easier to keep clean.
The mats in both the passenger compartment and trunk can be easily removed for cleaning.
Use Polestar-recommended cleaning agents and vehicle care products to clean the interior.
Air filtering systems
In addition to the passenger compartment filter, the Clean Zone Interior Package and Interior Air Quality System also help maintain high air quality in the passenger compartment.
Clean Zone Interior Package
CZIP includes the following:
- An enhanced function that starts the blower when the vehicle is unlocked using the remote key. The blower will then fill the passenger compartment with fresh air. The function starts when required and switches off automatically after a period of time or when one of the passenger compartment doors is opened. The amount of time the blower runs gradually decreases due to reduced need up until the vehicle is 4 years old.
- The fully automatic Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).
CleanZone
If the conditions are not met, the text CleanZone will be shown in white in Climate view. When all the conditions are met, the text will change to blue.
The following conditions must be met:
- All doors and trunk lid are closed.
- All side windows are closed.
- The Interior Air Quality System is activated.
- The blower is activated.
- Air recirculation is deactivated.
CleanZone does not indicate that the air quality is good, but only that the conditions for good air quality have been met.
Interior Air Quality System
IAQS is part of the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) and removes air contaminants such as particles, hydrocarbons, nitric oxides and ground-level ozone.
If the system’s air quality sensors detect contaminants in the outside air, the air intake closes and air recirculation is activated.
To ensure optimal air quality in the passenger compartment, the air quality sensor should always be engaged.
Recirculation is limited in cold weather to prevent fogging.
In the event of fogging, use the defroster functions for the windshield, side windows and rear window.
Passenger compartment air filter
Replacing the passenger compartment filter
To maintain the high performance of the climate control system, the filter must be replaced regularly. Follow Polestar’s service program for recommended replacement intervals. When driving in areas with a lot of smog, dust, etc., the filter may need to be changed more frequently.
There are two types of passenger compartment filters. Make sure that the correct filter is installed.
