Air filter cleaning (03_09)
Check the cleaning state and conditions of the filter every 5000 Km and every time
the vehicle is used on non-asphalted roads. Proceed as follows:
- remove the saddle;
- remove the right side «1» through the 3 fixing screws «2»;
- unscrew the 4 fixing screws of the air filter housing and take the filtering element out;
- wash the sponge with water and a neutral shampoo, dry with a clean cloth and short
blasts of compressed air;
- soak the sponge in a 50% petrol and Selenia Air Filter Oil solution;
- remove it from the solution, compress it with your hands without wringing out, let it
drain and reassemble.
Be extremely careful when repositioning the sponge in the housing support, in a way
that all the sealing lip perimeter affects the whole sponge.
IF THE FILTER IS OBSTRUCTED, THE ADMISSION RESISTANCE WILL IN-
CREASE, LEADING TO POWER LOSS AND FUEL CONSUMPTION WILL IN-
CREASE.
