Where is the cabin air filter located in the Great Wall Haval H6?

The cabin air filter in the Haval H6 is located on the passenger side, beneath the glove compartment near the center console. You can see it by looking up from the floor - the arrow indicates the filter's clip, which consists of three clips in total. Gently pull outward to open it, and you'll find the cabin air filter inside. Below are the steps to replace the cabin air filter: 1. To replace the cabin air filter, first open the glove compartment cover. Locate the fixing clip on the right side of the glove compartment and pull it outward firmly. Remove the fixing clip of the glove compartment cover to detach it. Then, squeeze both sides of the glove compartment towards the center with both hands, and the glove compartment can be taken off. 2. After removing the glove compartment, you will see the cabin air filter cover. Press firmly on the fixing clips on both sides of the cover, and the cover can be removed. 3. Pull the old cabin air filter outward. Install the new cabin air filter and reassemble everything in the reverse order of disassembly (pay attention to the installation direction of the cabin air filter).
I've been driving a Haval H6 for several years, and the cabin air filter is conveniently located behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. To access it, open the glove box—usually secured by clips or screws on both sides—and gently remove it. Behind it, you'll find a small cover or panel; pry it open, and the filter is inside. When replacing it, remember to align the arrow direction with the airflow inside the car for effective filtration of dust, pollen, and other pollutants. I recommend changing it every 10,000 kilometers or every six months, especially if you live in a heavily polluted area, to prevent cabin odors and reduced airflow from the AC. Doing it yourself is super easy—just buy a compatible filter for a few dozen bucks, saving on mechanic fees. Regular maintenance also extends your AC's lifespan, ensuring a more comfortable and worry-free drive, especially for those with allergies.
When using the air conditioning filter of the Haval H6, I found its design quite reasonable, hidden on the inner back wall of the glove box. You first need to open the passenger-side storage compartment, check for any screws or clips, and after removing the glove box, the filter slot is exposed. The replacement process takes just a few minutes. I believe its importance lies in purifying the air inside the car, filtering out dust and bacteria, and preventing respiratory issues, so I check and replace it every 8,000 kilometers or so. When choosing a filter, pay attention to the material type—ordinary non-woven fabric is sufficient. The replacement steps are easy to understand with online videos. If you drive a lot and don’t change the filter, not only will the airflow decrease, but it may also mold and affect health. Once you develop the habit, the driving experience improves noticeably.
