To replace the cabin air filter in a Nissan Qashqai, open the passenger door and locate the side panel of the centre console near the footwell. Remove the cover panel to access the pollen filter housing.

Unclip the filter housing cover by pressing the securing tabs and pull it out of its seat. Remove the old cabin air filter, paying attention to the fitting direction indicated by the arrows on the component.

Clean the inside of the housing to remove dust and accumulated debris. Insert the new filter, ensuring it is fitted according to the airflow direction indicated on the filter itself.

Refit the housing cover, reattach the side panel, and check that all components are securely fastened before using the ventilation system.
