First, locate the position of the cabin pollen filter housing, which in this case is found on the driver's side wall next to the accelerator (indicated by arrow no. 1 in the images). Unscrew the screws and remove the plastic cover (as indicated by arrow no. 2 in the images).

This will free the cabin pollen filter housing. Unscrew the two screws that secure the housing cover and extract the old filter.

Replace it with the new filter in the same position and repeat the previous steps in reverse order. The filter should be replaced every 9,320 miles or at least once a year.

The maintenance operation shown in the images is performed on a Citroën C5.
