Oh, the AX7's cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, which is quite easy to find. I've changed it myself many times. You need to open the glove box first, then press the clips or hooks on both sides to completely remove the box. Once moved aside, you'll see a square or rectangular filter cover secured with screws or clips. Open the cover, and the old filter is clipped inside—just pull it out and replace it with a new one. The operation is simple, just requiring a regular screwdriver. Regular replacement is important; I usually change it every six months or every 10,000 kilometers. Otherwise, the air conditioning will blow out dusty air, accumulating bacteria that can affect health, especially in summer when the AC is used more frequently. The location is well-designed, unlike some cars where it's hidden in the engine bay, making it a hassle. AX7 owners can easily perform maintenance themselves, saving money. Just remember to buy a filter that matches the size—available online or at auto parts stores—and clean any debris around it during inspection to ensure a tight seal.
