The cabin air filter for this car model is located inside the glove compartment, at the bottom. Access it from the passenger side, open the glove compartment door, detach and remove the shelf inside, then take off the cover of the filter housing located at the bottom of the glove compartment.

Extract the old filter and insert the new one, then reposition the cover and the shelf. It is also advisable to sanitise the cabin with a suitable spray when replacing the cabin air filter.
