To check or replace the engine air cleaner/filter:

1. Remove the four screws on the cover, then pull the

cover back.

2. Remove the engine air cleaner/filter and check or

replace it.

3. Replace the cover tightly.

Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine when to

replace the air filter.

See “Scheduled Maintenance Services” in the Index.

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.

Automatic Transaxle Fluid

It is not necessary to check the transaxle fluid level.

A transaxle fluid leak is the only reason for fluid loss.

If a leak occurs, take the vehicle to the dealership

service department and have it repaired as soon as

possible. You may also have your fluid level checked

by your dealer or service center when you have your

oil changed.
