5. Install the duct and the filter into the air cleaner
housing. Make sure that the duct fits properly into
the housing.
6. Install the cover and fasten the two retaining clips.
7. After the air filter is properly serviced, the indicator
should be reset. Push the button on top of the
indicator to reset it to the green (clean) filter zone.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine when to
replace the air filter. See “Owner Checks and Services”
in the Index.
CAUTION:
Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter
off can cause you or others to be burned. The air
cleaner not only cleans the air, it stops flame if
the engine backfires. If it isn’t there, and the
engine backfires, you could be burned. Don’t
drive with it off, and be careful working on the
engine with the air cleaner/filter off.
NOTICE:
If the air cleaner/filter is off, a backfire can cause
a damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily
get into your engine, which will damage it.
Always have the air cleaner/filter in place when
you’re driving.
