Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to replace the cabin air filter on a Ford C-Max: the filter is located in the passenger footwell, so for left-hand drive models, it is found on the right side of the vehicle, in the farthest part of the centre console.

To access this component, you need to remove the lower cover of the glove compartment, which is only held in place by pressure and can be easily pulled off. Then, it will be simple to go to the upper part of the console to find the compartment where the filter is stored.

Open it, remove the paper filter, clean the housing from dust and debris, and then place the new and clean one in its position, paying attention to the mounting direction. Close the glove compartment, replace the bottom of the glove compartment, and the operation is complete.
