Replacing the cabin air filter on this car model is not a straightforward task as the filter is located directly behind the central console of the dashboard. To reach it, you must remove the glove compartment; start by unfastening the trim covering the central dashboard to access the screws underneath that secure the glove compartment.

To reach the other screws, you need to remove the side cover of the dashboard where the passenger airbag deactivation switch is located, as well as the trim of the door pillar. Once the glove compartment is removed, shift the tube that runs in front of the filter container cap, then remove the cap, extract the old filter, and insert the new one. Proceed in reverse order to reassemble everything.
