positive terminal first.
• Reversing the steps may cause short-circuiting, should a

• When dry dust adheres to the element, blow compressed air
from the inside turning the element. Pressure of
compressed air must be under 205 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm
2
,
30 psi).
• When carbon or oil adheres to the element, soak the
element in detergent for 15 minutes then wash it several
times in water, rinse with clean water and dry it naturally.
After element is fully dried, inspect inside of the element
with a light and check if it is damaged or not.

comes first.
• The air cleaner uses a dry element, never apply oil.
• Do not run the engine with filter element removed.
