Where to Replace the Cabin Air Filter in Haval F5?
2 Answers
Haval F5's cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, and the glove compartment must be removed first for replacement. The frequency of replacing a car's cabin air filter actually depends on the vehicle usage. Generally, for urban family cars, it should be replaced every six months or once a year. The cabin air filter is a filter installed in the car's air conditioning system, which can absorb dust particles, alleviate respiratory discomfort, reduce irritation for allergy sufferers, and protect the air conditioning cooling system. The Haval F5 is the first model under the Haval F series, with body dimensions of 4470mm in length, 1857mm in width, and 1638mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2680mm. In terms of exterior design, the Haval F5 adopts the 'Sharp Battle Aesthetics' design language, featuring a golden body proportion design, an extensively stretched hood, a broad body, and a fastback design, highlighting the overall fashionable and dynamic appearance. It showcases epoch-making fashion aesthetics, with diving dynamic waistlines and black-silver sport side panels, creating a low-front and high-rear sporty stance. The overall poised posture exudes an aggressive aura.
I've changed the cabin air filter for my Haval F5 many times, and it's located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, you need to fully open the glove box, then locate the small clips on both sides at the bottom and gently pull them out to release space. Look inside, and you'll find a small white or gray cover—either pry it open or pull it out directly to access the filter. When removing the old filter, don't yank it forcefully. After installing the new filter, make sure the arrow points in the correct direction. The whole process doesn't require any tools, but squatting might be a bit uncomfortable. I recommend replacing it every six months or 10,000 kilometers—it filters out dust and odors, keeping the air inside the car fresher while saving some maintenance costs. Buying a compatible model online is very convenient.
