Cabin Air Filter Replacement

Model: Hyundai Tucson JM, MK 1 - Years 2004-2009
Part: Cabin air filter

The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, just behind the glove compartment: to replace it, open the glove compartment door, detach the side cord of the end stop, and press on the sides of the compartment to retract the clips and fully tilt it down; at this point, access the air duct, unclip the side clips securing the cover of the cabin air filter container, and remove the old filter. Clean any dirt residue and insert the new filter (activated carbon type is recommended), ensuring the airflow direction indicated by the arrows is followed.
