The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, just behind the glove compartment: open the glove box door, remove the side pins that act as stops, and lower the door completely; then remove the cap of the cabin air filter container and extract the old filter, ensuring there are no dirt residues inside the filter housing, and insert the new one respecting the airflow direction.

Then apply the cover and reposition the glove box door by inserting the side stop pins.
