Replacing the air filter element

According to the manufacturer's recommendation, the air filter element should be replaced after 4 years of operation or 60 thousand kilometers (whichever comes first).

Helpful Hint: When operating the vehicle in dusty conditions (e.g. in a big city) we recommend replacing the filter element more often - after 30 thousand kilometers.

You will need a Phillips screwdriver.



1. Turn out five screws of fastening of the top cover of the case of the air filter...



2....lift the lid...



3.... and remove the filter element from the filter housing.



4. Inspect the filter element. Blow it out with compressed air. Replace heavily soiled filter element.

5. If necessary, remove dust and dirt from the air filter housing.

6. Install the filter element and air cleaner housing cover in the reverse order of removal.

Note: The filter element is rectangular in shape to match the shape of the air filter housing, so incorrect installation of the element is excluded.
