Replacement of the cabin air filter of a Smart car

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Cabin air filter

To ensure that the air circulating in the Smart's air conditioning system is always clean, a specific filter has been placed on the intake of the circuit. Periodically, we must replace it to ensure its efficiency. To do this, we place ourselves in the front passenger seat, remove the floor mat, dismantle the tire repair kit, at the bottom of the dashboard we will find the cover of the filter box that we can open by acting on the fixing flap. We remove the old filter and insert a new filter element in its place, close the cover, put back the mounting kit and the floor mat.
