DIESEL AIR FILTER

Check the service indicator daily. If red band

cleaning. Unnecessary removal of the filter
increases the risk of injecting dust and other
impurities into the engine.
When service is required, first clean the outside of
the filter housing; then remove the old element as
gently as possible and discard.
1. Carefully clean the inside of the filter
housing without allowing dust into the air
intake.

damaged element and never use an
incorrect element.
