How do you remove the air conditioning filter? Let's see how to disassemble it from inside the Fiesta vehicle. The cabin filter is located at the bottom right of the centre tunnel.

Using a plastic lever, pry off the cover located at the bottom right of the centre tunnel (next to the pedals). Remove the cabin filter from its dedicated compartment.

Insert a new cabin filter, ensuring it fits well around the walls of the box, refit the cover of the filter box and secure the plastics. Check the correct installation of the previously mounted parts.

Fit a cabin air filter identical to the one removed.
