MAINTENANCE MANUAL
In the event of dust formation, clean air filter at correspondingly
shorter intervals. If filter mat is damaged, replace air filter.
A dirty filter insert will not only reduce the engine performance
but might also promote premature wear of the engine.
Spray K&N filter cleaner onto
filter surface and leave to soak
for approx. 10 min.
Never use gasoline, steam, caustic liquids, strong detergents,
particle cleaning agents or high pressure cleaners during
this step.
Do not dry over naked flame, with compressed air or with hot air
gun.
Rinse air filter with low pres-
sure water from inside to out-
side and let element dry natu-
rally.
