Default airbox cover

Hello all, can anyone tell me what I need to unplug or remove to lift my airbox cover, so I can check my airfilter on my 2.4 v70 2001..
Thanks
Andy

The trick comes when it's time to put the lid back on. A long, thin screwdriver is handy for coaxing the "hinge abs" back into their slots. The gasket is working against you here.

I've seen boxes where grease was slathered on the back edge of the box to facilitate reassembly.....not necessary.
