Installation Notes

Automotive technicians should disable the ignition and allow the engine to cool before servicing the air intake system. Open the air box housing, remove the old filter element, and inspect the housing sealing surfaces for debris before inserting the replacement. Ensure the filter seats fully and evenly within the housing to prevent unfiltered air bypass. Refer to the vehicle service manual for any torque specs on housing fasteners.
