In order to attain the maximum permitted vacuum in the air intake system, reduce the size of the intake opening
slowly while the motor is running by covering it (e.g. with a piece of card or a metal plate) until the maintenance
indicator/switch triggers.
After the maintenance indicator has triggered, do
not
continue to reduce the size of the intake opening as this will
cause damage.
After the test, reset the maintenance indicator by pressing the reset button.
