To replace the air conditioning filter on the Tiggo 8, follow these steps: 1. Open the glove box, use a flat-head screwdriver or a similar tool to remove the clips on both sides of the glove box, and then take off the glove box; 2. Open the filter housing cover and remove the old filter; 3. Insert the new filter into the housing according to the airflow direction indicated on the filter, then reinstall the filter housing cover and the glove box. Functions of the air conditioning filter: 1. Provide fresh air; 2. Ensure safety and hygiene; 3. Absorb harmful substances; 4. Filter solid impurities. Taking the 2020 Tiggo 8 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4700mm, width 1860mm, height 1746mm, with a wheelbase of 2710mm.
I've changed the air conditioning filter many times myself. The filter for the Tiggo 8 is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, open the car door, sit inside, and gently pull the cord or handle of the glove compartment to remove the entire glove box. At this point, you'll see a cover plate; use a small screwdriver to unscrew the screws or pry open the clips—don't use excessive force, or the plastic parts may crack. When removing the old filter, it might be covered in dust, so remember to tap off the loose dust. Before installing the new filter, check the arrow direction—usually, it's installed facing downward. Genuine filters bought online are fine and not expensive. After installation, test the air conditioning to ensure stronger and cleaner airflow. It's recommended to replace the filter at least once a year, especially during summer or in heavily polluted areas, to protect your family's respiratory health. Move steadily; beginners should take their time and prepare the necessary tools beforehand to avoid mistakes.
