1) The air cleaner is located at the front portion in the engine room. Open the bonnet hood,
release the clip of the air cleaner case and remove the cover.
2) Pull the outer element straight out of the element case so as not to damage the outer
element.
3) Blow compressed air from the inside of the outer element for cleaning. The air pressure
shall not exceed 686 kPa {7 kgf / cm2}. If the element has scratches, holes, or oil spots,
replace it with a new one.
WARNING
• Stop the engine before inspection, cleaning, or maintenance, otherwise dust will
enter the engine, causing the breakdown of the engine.
• Wear protective goggles, a dust respirator, and other protective gear before
cleaning the air cleaner and outer element in order to prevent dust from entering
your eyes or nose.
