Where is the cabin air filter located in the Beidouxing?

The original Beidouxing model does not come with a cabin air filter, but it has a reserved space for filter installation. The specific location is: Remove the glove compartment on the passenger side, and you'll see a black box resembling a blower. Unscrew the bolts on this black box, remove it, and the cabin air filter slot is located inside. Here is relevant information about cabin air filters: 1. When a vehicle draws in external air during operation, the cabin air filter prevents various airborne particles (including dust and pollen) from entering the cabin. 2. Without a cabin air filter, these particles would contaminate the vehicle's AC system, reducing cooling performance. Inhaling these particles may also cause allergic reactions. 3. There are two types of cabin air filters: standard filters without activated carbon, and activated carbon filters that can absorb odors. 4. The recommended replacement interval for cabin air filters is every 10,000 kilometers. Never clean the filter with water.
I've been driving my Beidou Star for almost ten years. The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, you need to open the glove box door, empty its contents, then locate the plastic clips or small screws at the bottom. Use a screwdriver to gently remove them and take off the entire glove box to reveal the air intake where the filter is inserted. It's a square-shaped thin panel - just pull it out and replace it with a new one. DIY replacement is very convenient and takes just a few minutes, just make sure not to install it backwards. While replacing, check if there's dust accumulation at the connection points. It's best to replace it annually, especially before spring pollen season, which significantly improves cabin air quality and reduces dust odor. If left unchanged for too long, reduced airflow may occur and mold could grow, affecting health. These filters cost about ten yuan at supermarkets - keep a spare at home for easy DIY replacement anytime. The Beidou Star's design makes it easy to locate and maintain, simple and worry-free.
I just started driving the Beidou Star not long ago. When I changed the air conditioning filter recently, I had to figure out its location—it's inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. Removing it requires a bit of technique: push the clips on both sides and press inward to take out the compartment, and the filter box is in the exposed slot inside. Pull it out and replace it with a new one, making sure the arrow points upward. The process was quite interesting; seeing the old filter covered in dust made me throw it away immediately, and the new one made the air feel much fresher. It's recommended to check it every 10,000 kilometers, especially if you drive in dusty urban areas where air quality deteriorates faster. Doing it yourself saves on repair costs and allows you to tidy up the surrounding area. If you're not confident, there are plenty of online tutorials—practice makes perfect. Changing the filter in the Beidou Star isn't complicated, the location is straightforward, and even beginners can handle it easily.
