The cabin air filter is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side: once you open the flap, remove the shelf inside the glove compartment and then remove the panel protecting the cabin air filter container. At this point, activate the recirculation to allow the flap to open and extract the old filter, then insert the new one, ensuring the correct airflow direction.

Proceed in reverse to reassemble the panel and shelf previously removed from the glove compartment.
