1. Open the glove box and remove the support strap (1).

2. With the glove box open, remove the stoppers on both sides.

3. Remove the climate control air filter case by pulling out both sides of the cover.

4. Replace the climate control air filter.

5. Reassemble in the reverse order of disassembly.

✽ NOTICE

When replacing the climate control air filter install it properly. Otherwise, the system may produce noise and the effectiveness of the filter may be reduced.
