Disposing Of Used Engine Oil And Oil Filters
Care should be taken in disposing of used engine oil and

oil filters from your vehicle. Used oil and oil filters,

indiscriminately discarded, can present a problem to the

environment. Contact your authorized dealer, service

station or governmental agency for advice on how and

where used oil and oil filters can be safely discarded in

your area.

Engine Air Cleaner Filter

CAUTION!

All air entering the engine intake must be filtered.
The abrasive particles in unfiltered air will cause
rapid wear to engine components.

WARNING!

The air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.)
provides a measure of protection. Do not remove the
air induction system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) unless
such removal is necessary for repair or maintenance.
Make sure that no one is near the engine compart-
ment before starting the vehicle with the air induc-
tion system (air cleaner, hoses, etc.) removed. Failure
to do so can result in serious personal injury.

The condition of the air cleaner filter is monitored by the

Engine Control Module. The “SERVICE AIR FILTER”

message will display in the Electronic Vehicle Informa-

tion Center (EVIC) when service is required. Refer to

“Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Un-

derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for further informa-

tion.
