Open the bonnet and locate the filter housing on the left side of the engine. Disconnect the three clips attached to the cover by lifting them upwards, and then remove the housing by detaching it from the support.

Reassemble accurately and ensure the clips are securely attached. Start the engine and check for proper operation.
