How to Replace the Cabin Air Filter

Model: Citroen C3 FC, FN - Years 2002-2009
Part: Cabin air filter

To start this operation, locate the position of the filter, which is situated behind the metal of the bonnet. To access it, release the bonnet from the latch and lift it, securing it with the prop rod. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws securing the filter cover. You can now extract the dirty filter, taking care to note the orientation in which it is fitted. During the installation of the new filter, ensure you maintain the same orientation.
