The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. Open the glove compartment door and unclip the side stops to fully lower it. Just above the internal fan motor is the cabin air filter housing; remove the cover and extract the old filter, clearing any debris present, and insert the new filter, ensuring the airflow direction is correct.

Reapply the cover and reposition the glove compartment door. Finally, it is recommended to sanitise the cabin using a suitable antibacterial spray.
