To replace the cabin filter on your Volkswagen Polo, open the passenger side door and position yourself under the dashboard, specifically in the footwell area. Now, remove the plastic cover that encloses the filter using just your hands.

Once done, pull out the old fibre filter and insert the new one, ensuring it is compatible. After checking that it is correctly fitted without any folds, close the filter box with the plastic cover.

Finally, turn on the cabin air blower to ensure everything is functioning properly.
