The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, just below the glove compartment: remove the sound-absorbing cover to reach the air duct and access the cabin air filter seat; remove the cover of the filter container by sliding it sideways, extract the old filter, and clean any dirt residue present; then insert the new cabin air filter (activated carbon type is suggested), ensuring the airflow direction indicated by the arrows on the filter is followed, and reposition the cover and the trim.
