The cabin air filter is located behind the passenger side glove compartment: open the door and unscrew the fixing screws at the four corners of the glove compartment. Then pull out the glove compartment by disconnecting the courtesy light power connector: at the bottom left, you can access the cap of the cabin filter container secured with screws; unscrew the screws, remove the cap, take out the old filter, and insert the new one, ensuring the correct airflow direction.

Reapply the cap and proceed in reverse for reassembly.
