Replacement of Cabin Air Filter

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Cabin air filter

The cabin air filter purifies the air inside the vehicle and is located under the passenger side glove compartment. To access it, remove the panel secured with plastic clips by simply pulling it outwards. Unscrew the screws of the filter cover using a ratchet spanner and carefully pull the filter downwards to avoid dust dispersal. Place a cloth on the floor to collect any dirt. Refit the new filter into its housing and close the cover with the screws. Reposition the cover.
