To ensure clean air flow in the cabin of the Mini, you must replace the filter as scheduled in the maintenance plan set by the manufacturer. This is located under the glove compartment in front of the front passenger.

Once located, unscrew the two screws that hold it, detach the cover, and remove the old filter element. Take the new filter and insert it into its place starting from the left side, ensuring correct positioning by using the lower edge as a reference.

Refit the cover and secure it by tightening the screws.
