To ensure that dirt does not enter the ventilation system of the Fiat 500, a specific filter has been installed: to keep it efficient, it needs to be replaced at the scheduled intervals. To do this, position yourself in the front passenger seat and remove the screw that secures the panel at the end of the centre tunnel.

Locate the cover of the filter box, unscrew the screw that holds it in place, and open it while making space between the electrical cables. Remove the old filter element and replace it with a new one, paying attention to the arrow stamped on one side.

Close the cover and tighten the screw, then refit the panel on the tunnel and secure its screw.
