2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Changan CS95 is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To replace the cabin air filter, the glove compartment must be removed. It is essential to replace the cabin air filter regularly. If the cabin air filter is clogged and ineffective, it can easily lead to bacterial growth inside the vehicle, affecting the health of passengers. Below are the detailed steps for replacing the cabin air filter: 1. Open the glove compartment; there is a clip on the right side. Pinch the pointed end of the clip to push the telescopic rod out to the left. 2. There are knobs on both the left and right sides of the glove compartment. Twist them to remove the knobs. 3. At this point, the glove compartment can be taken off. 4. Inside the glove compartment, you will see a square plastic cover plate, which can be gently pried off. 5. Now, you will see a rectangular cover plate with clips on both sides. Press the clips to open the cover plate. 6. The cabin air filter will now be visible.
I've been driving the Changan CS95 for three or four years and have replaced the cabin air filter several times. It's located behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. You'll need to open the storage compartment first. There are some clips on both sides of the compartment - just press them gently or pry them open a bit, and you can either remove the entire compartment or see the cover panel behind it. Open the cover panel, and the filter is right there inside. The first time I looked for it, it took some time to figure it out, but once you understand, it takes less than five minutes to complete - a pretty convenient design. Placing it behind the glove compartment is reasonable as it avoids interference from the driver's area activities and provides good dust protection. I recommend checking and replacing it every six months or so. Don't wait until the air inside the car starts smelling or causes allergies - especially if you have children at home, healthy air inside the car is crucial. Replacing the filter during regular maintenance can also extend the life of the air conditioning system. The tools needed are simple - just regular household pliers will do, and you can buy cheap filters online.
