Replacing the Cabin Air Filter on the Kia Cee'd

Model: Kia Cee D JD, MK 2 - Years 2012-2018
Part: Cabin air filter

To ensure a clean airflow inside the Kia Cee'd's cabin, you must replace the cabin air filter at the intervals specified in the maintenance schedule. Position yourself in the front passenger seat and open the glove compartment, unclip the lever located at the bottom, on the outer right side. On the inner sides of the glove compartment, you will find two plastic screws that you will remove by turning them, allowing the compartment to pivot downwards. In the part of the dashboard that is revealed, you will find the cover of the cabin air filter; open it and pull out the filter element, replacing it with a new one, ensuring it is positioned the correct way. Reassemble everything by reversing the previous steps.
