Checking or Replacing the Air Cleaner/Filter

1. Unlatch the two hooks on top of the air

cleaner housing.

2. Turn back the air inlet panel and rest it on top of the

housing. The air intake tube is designed to flex back;

you do not need to disconnect it.

3. After replacing the air cleaner filter, seat the tabs on

the bottom of the panel into the slots at the bottom.

4. Latch the hooks to secure the panel in place. If the

panel moves easily, check that the tabs are seated

correctly in the slots.

CAUTION:

Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter

off can cause you or others to be burned. The air

cleaner not only cleans the air, it stops flame if

the engine backfires. If it isn’t there, and the

engine backfires, you could be burned. Don’t

drive with it off, and be careful working on the

engine with the air cleaner/filter off.

NOTICE:

If the air cleaner/filter is off, a backfire can cause

a damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily get

into your engine, which will damage it. Always

have the air cleaner/filter in place when

you’re driving.

Passenger Compartment

Air Filter Replacement

Passenger compartment air, both outside air and

recirculated air, is routed through a passenger

compartment filter, which is part of a two-piece filter

system. The filter removes certain contaminants from

the air, including pollen and dust particles, as well as

odors such as exhaust fumes. Reductions in airflow,

which may occur more quickly in dusty areas, indicate

that the filter needs to be replaced early. For how often

to change the air filter, see “Maintenance Schedule” in

the Index.

The access panel for the passenger compartment air

filter is located in the back of the glove box.
