It must be replaced when necessary,
and should not be washed.
Have the air cleaner filter inspected or
replaced by a professional workshop.

rised Kia dealer/service partner.

If the vehicle is operated in extreme-
ly dusty or sandy areas, replace the
element more often than the usual
recommended intervals. (Refer to
