2 Answers
Soueast DX7 replacement method for the air conditioning filter is to press inward from the middle position of the filter to expose a corner of the air conditioning filter, then pull it out forcefully and replace it with a new one. The functions of the car air conditioning filter are as follows: 1. Ensure the air filter fits tightly against the housing to prevent unfiltered air from entering the cabin. 2. Separate solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and grinding particles from the air. 3. Adsorb moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2 from the air. 4. Prevent the car windows from fogging up, ensuring clear visibility for drivers and passengers and safe driving. 5. Provide fresh air for the occupants, avoiding the inhalation of harmful gases and ensuring driving safety. 6. Effectively intercept pollen to ensure that occupants do not experience allergic reactions that could affect driving safety.
I've been driving the SouEast DX7 for several years and often change the air filter myself—it's quite simple and saves money. First, make sure the car is turned off and the engine is completely cooled for safety. Open the hood and locate the black rectangular plastic box at the front right—that's the air filter housing. It's secured with a few clips or screws; loosen them to open the lid, then gently remove the old filter. If it's clogged with dust or looks blackened, it's time for a replacement. Unpack the new filter, align it correctly (don't install it backward), and place it flat inside. Close the lid and secure the clips or screws back in place. Basic tools like your hands or a Phillips screwdriver will do—done in 7 minutes. It's recommended to replace it every 10,000 km or every six months to ensure smooth engine airflow, better fuel efficiency, and prevent premature wear. DIYing this also helps you learn basic car maintenance. If you live in a dusty area, change it even more frequently!
