To ensure clean air circulation in the cabin of the Seat Leon, periodically replace the specific filter located at the lower part of the dashboard in front of the passenger seat. To access it, unscrew the three screws securing the panel under the dashboard using a Torx key, and also remove the two plastic screws at the bottom by turning them by hand.

Remove the filter cover by sliding it sideways, take out the old filter element, and replace it with a new one, ensuring correct installation. Refit the cover and secure the panel with its screws.
