Toyota prius hsd Manuel D’Utilisation

 

 
 

There is a hepa filter for the Air-Conditioning system behind the glove-box: 
 

 

 
Open the bottom glove-box, and then remove all the contents (since they will end up falling out all 
over the floor otherwise). 
 
To the right of glove-box is an attached small plastic hydraulic arm (to add a resistance feel).  Pull 
on that arm so it separates itself from the glove-box.  Then hold onto the left and right sides of the 
glove-box while squeezing inwards.  This will allow you to pull the glove-box downward, beyond 
the usual stopping point.  Having accomplished that, you may let go.  Just let it hang there, like this: 
 

 

 
The air-flow assembling will then be completely visible and very easy to access.  You’ll see the 
filter at the top, lying horizontal along the entire width of that white plastic air-duct.  Just pull on 
both sides to slide it out.  Then you can easily inspect it and replace it (when needed).
