Let's see how to remove the cabin air filter on a Mercedes S-Class. We'll look at removing the components related to the cabin air filter.

The cabin filter is located at the bottom left under the glove compartment. Unscrew the mounting screws from under the glove compartment, then remove the cover located at the bottom.

Once the cover is removed, take off the cap from the filter housing, then extract the worn cabin filter. Insert a new cabin filter: ensure it fits snugly against the walls of the housing.

Reinstall the cap for the filter box and tighten the screws for the cover. Make sure the plastic components are properly mounted.
