Replacing the Cabin Air Filter on Ford Focus 3

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Air filter

As always recommended, ensure your car (in this case, the Ford Focus) is securely immobilised in a stable and safe position. This precaution ensures a minimum level of safety for the operator performing any maintenance operation. Next, after locating the cabin air filter housing (which is on the passenger side, in the vertical wall separating it from the driver's seat, beneath the dashboard), remove the decorative cover to access the filter housing. Operate the two levers to open it and extract the old filter. Insert the new filter into its housing and reassemble everything by following the procedure in reverse. And you're done!
