Replacement of Cabin Air Filter

Model: Hyundai Santa Fe MK 1 - Years 2000-2006
Part: Cabin air filter

The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, behind the glove compartment, which must be removed. Open the glove compartment door and unscrew the fixing screws of the compartment itself; detach the support cable of the flap to tilt it and access the other fixing screws. Once the compartment is removed, you can see the air duct and the cover of the filter housing: remove the cover and extract the old filter, then insert the new one, ensuring the airflow direction is correct. Reassemble everything in reverse order.
