How to Replace the Pollen Filter on Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Cabin air filter

Removing the cabin air filter on Focus? Remove the filter and replace it with a new one. Open and lift the engine bonnet, unclip the securing clips located at the sides of the plastic (under the windscreen). Use a lever to remove the covering plastic. Remove the cover above the air filter (where the air filter is located). Extract the worn cabin filter. Insert a new cabin filter, ensuring it fits snugly around the walls of the box. Cover the air filter, tighten the covering plastics. Check the correct assembly of the parts and close the front bonnet of the Focus.
