Engine Air Cleaner Filter

Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals.

NOTE: Be sure to follow the “dusty or off-road conditions” maintenance interval if applicable.

WARNING!
The air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) can provide a measure of protection in the case of engine backfire. Do not remove the air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) unless such removal is necessary for repair or maintenance. Make sure that no one is near the engine compartment before starting the vehicle with the air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) removed. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
