Air Cleaner
Every 10.000 Km replace filter element 3 (Fig. 35); to this end
unscrew nuts 1 and remove cover 2. When driving on extremely dusty
roads, replace the filter element every 5,000 Km.
Seasonal adjustment of the air cleaner is required for delivery of fresh
or warm air (warmed by the exhaust manifold). If the average ambient
temperature in the season is below 15 "C, slightly pull and then shift
the handle 5 of the gate on the housing of thermo-regulator 4 in the
upper position (HOT) and if the average temperature is above 15 "C,
shift the handle to the lower position (COLD).
