1. On the passenger’s side of the air filter housing, release the two
clamps from the air filter housing cover.
2. Lift the passenger’s side of the cover and push
the cover toward the passenger’s side. Release the
three tabs on the cover from the three slots in the
driver’s side of the housing.
3. Carefully separate the cover from the housing.
4. Remove the air filter element from the housing.
5. Wipe the cover and the housing clean to remove
any dirt or debris and to make sure the cover seals
to the housing.
6. Install a new air filter element. Be careful not to crimp the filter element
edges between the housing and the cover. This could cause filter damage
and allow unfiltered air to enter the engine if not properly seated.
