Video tutorial

Watch the video to see how to access the compartment where the cabin air filter is located. First, open the glove compartment door on the driver's side, use a screwdriver to unscrew and remove the screws that hold it to the dashboard, then fully extract it. At this point, you can see the plastic cover that seals the filter box in front of you. Release the clips that hold the cover, as shown in the guide, and now you can remove the old filter to be replaced.

Insert the new filter, close the cover, and reassemble the glove compartment that was removed earlier.
