The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side under the glove compartment: remove the plastic cover where the courtesy light is located until you can see the cabin air filter housing. Unscrew the mounting screws of the cap and pull out the old filter; then insert the new one, ensuring the correct airflow direction.

Finally, reapply the cap and the cover that were removed earlier. It is also recommended to sanitize the cabin and the ventilation ducts with a suitable spray to eliminate any bad odors.
