Engine Air Cleaner/Filter
SeeEngine Compartment
Overview on page 5-12for
location of engine air
cleaner/lter and change
indicator (if equipped).
When to Inspect
If your vehicle is equipped with a lter change indicator
it lets you know when the lter needs to be replaced.
Vehicles with a restriction indicator, inspect the air
cleaner/lter at every oil change and replace the lter
when the indicator tells you to. Vehicles without a
change indicator, inspect the air cleaner/lter at every
oil change and replace it at the rst oil change after
25,000 miles (40 000 km).
How to Inspect
Locate the lter change indicator. When the change
indicator turns black or is in the red/orange “change”
zone, replace the lter and reset the indicator. To
inspect the air cleaner/lter, remove the lter from the
vehicle and lightly shake lter to release loose dust and
dirt. If the lter remains “caked” with dirt, a new lter
is required.
To inspect and replace the lter and reset the indicator
(if equipped), do the following:
The air cleaner/lter assembly is located on the front
corner of the engine compartment on the passenger’s
side of the vehicle.

After rell, the level must be rechecked. Add enough engine oil so that the uid is within the proper operating range.
