The engine air filter housing is located to the side of the engine, to the left of the battery (when viewed from the front of the engine bay): unscrew the two fixing screws of the housing cover located near the coolant reservoir; disconnect the intake duct by pulling it backwards and the hose attached to the cover itself: then lift the cover which also contains the filter.

Replace the old filter with the new one, check that there are no residues inside the housing, and reapply the cover tightening the respective fixing screws.

Finally, reconnect the intake duct and the hose.
