Open the front bonnet and ensure the support rod is correctly positioned: you can immediately see the plastic housing of the air filter. Using a medium-sized cross-head screwdriver, unscrew the 10 fixing screws of the filter housing cover and remove it. At this point, extract the old air filter and replace it with the new one: the correct seating position is mandatory (the shape of the filter edge is actually imprinted on the base of the filter housing).

Refit the cover and secure it by tightening the 10 fixing screws.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Dacia Sandero?

The tyre pressure warning light that appears on the instrument cluster of the Dacia Sandero can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver’s door pillar. Once the inflation is complete, navigate through the menu that appears on the instrument cluster to find the option related to the tyres: select this with the OK button, which should then be held down for a few seconds to completely turn off the light.
