attaching clips and open the cover.
2. Remove the used filter and wipe

the inside of the air cleaner hous-
ing carefully not to remain dusts in
the cover housing.
3. Place new filter with clean hands
and ensure the rubber gasket is
not taken off.
4. Lock the cover with attaching clips.
Replace the filter according to the
Maintenance Schedule.
If the vehicle is operated in extreme-
ly dusty or sandy areas, replace the
element more often than the usual
recommended intervals. (Refer to
"Maintenance under severe usage
conditions" in this chapter.)
NOTICE
• Do not drive with the filter
removed; this will result in exces-
sive engine wear.
• When replacing the air cleaner fil-
ter, be careful that dust or dirt does
not enter the air intake, or damage
may result.
Keep the new filter clean of any
contamination while replacing.

engine wear or sensors' failure.
