The cabin air filter is located on the passenger side, just below the glove compartment, above the scuff plate; to access the air duct, it is necessary to remove the plastic cover that also houses the courtesy light by unscrewing the two fastening screws; once you reach the cabin air filter location, unscrew the four screws that secure the cap and extract the old filter, ensuring there are no dirt residues inside, and insert the new one (the activated carbon version is recommended), orienting it according to the direction of the airflow indicated by the arrows printed on the filter itself.
