cleaner case.
5. Based upon the element’s condition and the Periodic Mainte-
nance Schedule, clean or discard the element. If the element
is not being replaced, blow the debris from the element with
compressed air.
6. Before installing the cleaned or new element, use a clean cloth
to wipe the interior of the air cleaner box

.
7. Install a new air cleaner element. Use a genuine KYMCO air
cleaner element, or an equivalent air cleaner element speci-
fied for your motorcycle.
8. Complete the installation by reinstalling the air cleaner parts
in the reverse order of removal.
Never use oil or solvent to wash the paper-type element.
Be careful to keep water from entering the air cleaner,
as this may may result in hard starting, or premature
engine wear.
If the air cleaner element or cover is not installed prop-
erly, dirt may be drawn into the engine. This dirt can
cause premature engine wear and affect engine perfor-
mance.
Using the wrong KYMCO air cleaner element or other
air cleaner element which is not of equivalent quality
may cause premature engine wear or performance prob-
lems.
