iii. AIR FILTER ELEMENT REPLACEMENT
DESCRIPTION
Proper maintenance of the air filter is essential
for vehicle performance and fuel economy. The
air filter element removes foreign material such
as dust, dirt, and other material from the
intake air, thereby preventing the engine from
damage due to contaminated air.
Inspect and clean the air filter element at every
routine service. Replace the air filter element as
per service schedule.
REMOVAL

the parking brake, and raise the hood.
2. Unscrew the top three mounting bolts of air
filter assembly & one locator point at back
side.
3. Detach the cover through hinge action, with
clamp and snorkel intact with cover.
4. Remove the air filter element.
5. Gently tap loose any dirt or debris from the
filter. Clean the housing and air ducts as
well. Take care not to allow dirt and debris to
enter the air inlet to the engine.
