Where is the cabin air filter located in the Haima S5?

The cabin air filter of the Haima S5 is located on the right side of the accelerator pedal. To replace it, first remove the triangular cover panel next to the accelerator. After removal, you will see a black cover plate. Carefully pry it open with a screwdriver, being cautious not to break the clips. Once the cover plate is removed, the cabin air filter will be visible. Then, pull out the filter and replace it with a new one. The Haima S5 is a compact SUV under the Haima brand, featuring a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. In terms of dimensions, the vehicle measures 4418mm in length, 1823mm in width, and 1630mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2630mm. It is powered by a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I've been driving the Haima S5 for a long time, and the cabin air filter is located right behind the glove box. It's not difficult to remove. If you want to change it yourself, first empty the glove box. Some versions require unscrewing small screws or prying open clips. Once the glove box is removed, you can see the filter compartment. Unscrew the cover, pull out the old filter, and replace it with a new one. Be careful not to install it backward, as it affects the filtering performance. I change it every six to twelve months. Buying online costs around 20-30 yuan, which is much cheaper than a repair shop. After replacement, the air inside the car immediately feels fresher, reducing dust and allergens, making long drives more comfortable. Regular maintenance of the AC system also saves fuel and extends its lifespan. Haima's design is quite user-friendly—even beginners can learn it. Just remember to match the model number to avoid buying the wrong size and wasting effort.
