Air Cleaner
If the air cleaner is clogged with dust, there will be greater intake resistance, resulting in decreased power output and increased fuel consumption.
Check and clean periodically according to the following procedure: 1) Take off the air cleaner case cover.
Remove the element from the air cleaner case cover.
2) This air cleaner element is of dry type.
Remember that it needs cleaning according to the following method.
3) Blow off dust on cleaner element by compressed air from inside the element, or replace the element as necessary.
CAUTION:
The air cleaner element should be
replaced every 50000 km (30000
miles). More frequent replacement is
necessary when you drive under
dusty conditions.
