2 Answers
The cabin air filter in the GAC Fick Jeep Cherokee is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. You can access it by removing the glove compartment. The cabin air filter is a crucial component of the vehicle's air conditioning system and requires regular replacement. If the cabin air filter is not replaced for an extended period, it can affect the performance of the air conditioning system and the health of the vehicle's occupants. The GAC Fick Jeep Cherokee is a joint venture model between GAC and Jeep. In terms of dimensions, the GAC Fick Jeep Cherokee measures 4649mm in length, 1859mm in width, and 1686mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2705mm, and is positioned as an SUV model.
I've been driving the Cherokee for two years and changing the AC filter is something I often do myself. It's located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, open the glove compartment and pull it upwards firmly to remove it. Then, you'll see a cover panel blocking the way. There's a small clip on the left side of the panel—press it to open, and inside is where the filter sits. Note that the filter has upper and lower slots, and the arrow must point downward when installing. Installing it backward will affect the filtration efficiency. I recommend using the OEM filter or Mann-Filter CU34009, as this size fits best. I change it every 8,000 kilometers, and more frequently in the dusty northern regions. The whole process requires no tools and takes just ten minutes, saving over 200 yuan compared to going to the 4S shop. Oh, and don't forget to remove the plastic film from the new filter—I once made that mistake when helping a neighbor replace theirs.
