Video tutorial

To ensure clean air flow in the Fiat Idea's air conditioning system, a filter must be periodically replaced. To do this, sit in the front passenger seat, unscrew the three screws securing the glove compartment in front of you and remove it; at the bottom of the dashboard, you will find the cover of the filter box, open it by releasing the fastening clips.

Remove the old filter element and replace it with a new one, ensuring the flow direction is correct, close the cover, and reposition the glove compartment, securing it with its screws.
