To replace the cabin air filter in a Mercedes A-Class, open the hood and locate the filter compartment at the base of the windshield on the passenger side. After removing the plastic cover and unscrewing the screws that secure the housing cover, extract the old pollen filter, paying attention to the installation direction.

Before inserting the new filter, thoroughly clean the housing, removing leaves, dust, and other accumulated debris. Then, install the new filter, ensuring the airflow direction matches the indicated arrows, reposition the cover, and tighten the securing screws.

Finally, reattach the plastic cover and check the proper operation of the ventilation system and air conditioning.
