Icon5 Burnt Rubber Smell when trun on heat

I found that 10 or 20 mints after I turn on the heat, there is a smell of burnt rubber or plastic coming from the vent, but ONLY KEEP A MOMENT, then back to normal.
I tested two days and found that if I turn off the heat, there is NO SMELL AT ALL!
UPDATE:
I am keep testing my car and fond that it has burnt rubber smell come even turn OFF the vent, but less frequent.
If trun on the heat, I can smell that each time. If I turn off, I can only smell it once in two days.
So looks smell is come from outside, it just pick up quickly by vent if I turn it on.

It's possible somehow something got passed the filter or the fresh air ducts.
