Steps to replace the cabin air filter of Kia K3: 1. Open the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat and unscrew the rotating buttons on both sides to lower the glove compartment. 2. There is a slot on the right side, gently pull it outward. 3. You can see the location of the cabin air filter, squeeze both sides slightly to open the cover. 4. Insert the filter horizontally, making sure the white side faces upward, then reassemble following the reverse order. The filter can efficiently filter and absorb particulate impurities to achieve oil filtration and air purification performance, making it an ideal material for various high-end cars and sedans.
Replacing the air conditioning filter for the Kia K3 is actually quite simple. I've been driving my K3 for several years and have changed the filter a few times without any issues. First, buy a new filter online—I recommend opting for an OEM-compatible one, which is affordable at just a few dozen yuan. Prepare your tools, typically a Phillips screwdriver, then open the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. Empty it out and locate the securing screw underneath to remove it. Gently pull out the entire glove compartment, being careful not to tug on any internal wiring. The filter housing is on the backside; just open the cover to see the old filter. Pull it out, insert the new one, ensuring it's oriented correctly with the arrow marking aligned to the airflow direction. Reinstall the glove compartment and tighten the screw, then check that the AC is blowing normally without any odd smells. I recommend replacing it annually or every 20,000 kilometers—it's cost-effective and healthier, making the air much fresher. The whole process takes about 20 minutes, and doing it yourself saves hundreds in maintenance fees.
