Where is the air conditioning filter located in the Ford Mondeo Zhisheng?

The air conditioning filter of the Ford Mondeo Zhisheng is located on the right side of the driver's accelerator pedal, and the accelerator pedal needs to be removed for replacement. Removing the accelerator pedal requires a straight socket wrench approximately 150mm long and 10mm in size. Due to the cramped space, the operation is relatively difficult. Below is the relevant information: The process for replacing the Mondeo Zhisheng's air conditioning filter is as follows: 1. First, the Mondeo Zhisheng's air filter is located in the corner to the right of the accelerator pedal. Replacement requires removing the accelerator pedal first, and the entire process is quite awkward with very limited operating space. 2. Open the front passenger door, then open the glove compartment; carefully pry open the trim panel next to the glove compartment. This panel uses a snap-fit design and can be opened with a slight force, but be careful not to use excessive force. 3. Unscrew the 4 screws on the glove compartment and set them aside, being careful not to lose them. 4. Use your foot to support the removed glove compartment because there is a small light wire connected to the back of the glove compartment; open the slots on both sides of the air conditioning filter cover and pull out the air conditioning filter. If the air conditioning filter is not very dirty, you can gently tap to remove debris and dust from the gaps. If it is very dirty, it should be replaced with a new filter. Note: When installing the new filter, pay attention to the direction (the filter is marked).
As a long-time owner of the Ford Mondeo Zhisheng, I'm very familiar with the location of the cabin air filter—it's inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. You need to fully open the glove box and remove a few clips or small screws inside to reveal the filter housing deep inside. When removing the old filter, pull it out gently without yanking. When installing the new filter, make sure it's oriented correctly with the airflow arrow pointing downward. It's not difficult to do it yourself—just use a Phillips screwdriver and avoid forcing anything to prevent damaging plastic components. Regularly changing the filter improves cabin air quality by reducing odors and dust. I replace mine every six months—it's economical and healthy. The well-thought-out placement makes maintenance convenient and hassle-free in Ford vehicles. Watching tutorial videos online makes the process even more straightforward.
Last time I changed the cabin air filter, the location was clearly behind the glovebox on the passenger side footwell. Opening the glovebox, I felt a cover secured with clips or screws on the inner side. After releasing it, I saw the filter housing. It might feel unfamiliar for first-timers, so I cleared out the clutter before removing the clips, took out the old filter for a quick clean, and then inserted the new one. Not replacing it would let dust circulate in the car, affecting nasal health. The Ford Mondeo's design makes DIY easy and cost-effective while improving air quality. After the replacement, I noticed the air from the vents was noticeably fresher, making driving more comfortable. The location isn't complicated—just a slight bend near the passenger side gets the job done.
