Installation Guide

1. Locate the Cabin Air Filter: The filter is typically positioned behind the glove compartment or under the dashboard on the passenger side. Refer to your vehicle’s service manual for exact location.
2. Remove the Old Filter: Open the filter housing, release any clips or screws holding the old filter in place, and gently pull it out. Dispose of the used filter responsibly.
3. Insert the New CU 4416: Align the filter’s airflow direction arrow with the vehicle’s airflow path. Slide the filter into the housing until it clicks into place.
4. Secure the Housing: Reattach any clips, screws, or fasteners that were removed during removal. Ensure a snug fit to prevent air leaks.
5. Test the HVAC System: Turn on the vehicle’s heating and cooling system to confirm proper airflow and verify that no unusual noises occur.

Benefits for Vehicle Owners
