Method for replacing the air conditioning filter in the Vezel: 1. The glove box needs to be removed to access it. Press the glove box inward to open it, but the left damping hook is still connected. Apply downward pressure on the damping hook to remove the glove box; 2. Open the cover of the air conditioning filter, remove the old filter, and replace it with a new one according to the direction. The Vezel is the first SUV under GAC Honda, with body dimensions of 4294mm in length, 1772mm in width, and 1605mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. In terms of appearance, the Vezel features a winged front face design, with a mysterious and elegant black tone, integrating the grille and headlights to highlight a sharp and dynamic personality. The LED headlights with dual-lamp design, combined with arc-shaped LED daytime running lights, perfectly unify elegance and sharpness.
I've been driving the Vezel for several years, and changing the air conditioning filter myself is quite simple—it takes less than 10 minutes. First, open the glove compartment on the passenger side and clear out any clutter to avoid dropping things. You'll see a small retaining rod or clip on the right side; gently pull it out with your fingers—this step is crucial, otherwise the glove compartment won’t come down. Next, the glove compartment will fully lower, revealing a rectangular cover behind it—that’s the filter housing. Pry open the cover with a bit of force, and when removing the old filter, note the direction of the arrow. Insert the new filter in the same orientation, ensuring the arrow points in the direction of airflow. Reattach the cover, push the glove compartment and retaining rod back into place, and you're done. I recommend replacing it once a year or every 15,000 km—it saves money and prevents dust allergies. Choosing an activated carbon filter works even better, making the air from the vents much fresher. Be gentle during the process to avoid damaging plastic parts by pulling too hard. Once you maintain this habit, the air inside the car stays clean all the time.
