The owner's manual provides a series of guidelines on maintenance based on mileage or time, so it is advisable to consult it to know what to replace and when. The engine air filter is located just behind the battery; to replace it, simply unclip the fasteners of the cover, remove the old filter, and insert the new one. The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment: you will need to unclip the end stops on the sides of the compartment and tilt it down; then remove the cap of the filter container, take out the old filter, and insert the new one, ensuring the airflow direction is correct.

Since you are near the air duct, it may be useful to inspect the internal fan. Next, lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the left rear wheel, and take off the wheel arch liner to access the filter.
