To remove the engine air cleaner/filter:
1. Unhook the retaining clips and remove the cover.
2. Lift the filter and the connected duct out of the air
cleaner/filter housing. Hold the duct and remove the
filter by both pulling and twisting the filter away
from the duct. Care should be taken to dislodge
as little dirt as possible.
3. Clean the filter sealing surface of the duct and the
filter housing.
4. Install the new filter by pushing it all the way to the
stop on the duct.
5. Install the duct and the filter into the engine air
cleaner/filter housing. Make sure that the duct fits
properly into the housing.
6. Install the cover and fasten the two retaining clips.
7. After the engine air cleaner/filter is properly
serviced, the indicator should be reset. Push the
button on top of the indicator to reset it to the
green (clean) filter zone.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine when to
replace the engine air cleaner/filter. See “Owner Checks
and Services” in the Index.
