Replacing the Cabin Air Filter

Model: Kia Sorento MK 2 - Years 2009-2014
Part: Cabin air filter

The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side behind the glove compartment door: open the door and remove the side limit stops to fully tilt it; then remove the cap from the cabin air filter housing, extract the old filter, and once you ensure there are no dirt residues in the housing, insert the new filter respecting the airflow direction (indicated by arrows on the filter itself). Then reassemble the cover and the door. It is also recommended to sanitise the cabin using the appropriate spray.
