The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, inside the glove compartment: to replace it, simply open the door and remove the cap at the bottom to access the cabin air filter housing; at this point, grasp the two plastic tabs of the filter support and pull it out of its housing, remove any dirt residue present, place the new filter in the corresponding support frame, and insert it back into its housing.

When replacing the cabin air filter, it is recommended to sanitise the cabin with a germicidal spray.
