Pollen/Cabin Filter Location

Hi All,
I've been hunting all over my car to try and find where to replace the pollen/cabin filter. According to the handbook i should change it fairly regularly but it doesn't say where it is! I've seen a few posts on this forum with no answers. If it helps i've the 120hp 6 speed 1.6 Diesel C3 Aircross.
I've tried the panel under the glove box, i've had a look in the panel covering the wiper mechanism and i've had a look under the drivers compartment to see if there are any obvious locations there for it... but i came up empty.

Thanks in advance!

Stu

Replacing the filter at the yearly scheduled service by your dealer is OK I think, unless you live in a very polluted or dusty environment.

Anyway, it is not difficult to replace it:
-Open the engine hood
-From the left side (over the coolant tank) pull/remove the hood rubber seal (no need to remove it completely, about half of its length is OK)
-push down the lower plastic panel where the seal was attached
-inside the cavity is the filter
