For the proper functioning of the engine and to maintain consistent fuel consumption, replace the air filter of the Mazda CX-5 at the scheduled intervals, more frequently if you drive on particularly dusty roads. Open the bonnet and locate the filter box on the driver's side, at the bottom.

There are two securing clips on the cover; once released, you can open the box and set it aside. Remove the old filter element and check that the housing is free of dirt.

Install the new filter ensuring correct positioning and close the cover by securing the clips.
