Open the passenger side door and access the cabin by moving the passenger seat back. The cabin air filter is located under the dashboard.

Locate the screws securing the cover under the dashboard, remove them with a 6mm socket, and take off the cover. At this point, you have access to the filter, which can be extracted and replaced with a new one, ensuring it is inserted in the same orientation.

Next, reposition the cover and secure it again with the screws removed earlier, using the 6mm socket. Finally, start the engine and turn on the air conditioning fan to maximum speed to check the correct airflow.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
