AIR CLEANER

Filter replacement

It must be replaced when necessary,
and should not be washed.
You can clean the filter when inspect-
ing the air cleaner element.
Clean the filter by using compressed
air.

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 section.)

OVF071010

CAUTION

• Do not drive with the air clean-

er removed; this will result in
excessive engine wear.

• When removing the air cleaner

filter, be careful that dust or
dirt does not enter the air
intake, or damage may result.

• We recommend that you use

parts for replacement from an
authorized Kia dealer.
