1. APPLY CLEANER
(SEE FIGURE
1)
FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON THE K&N AIR
FILTER CLEANER BOTTLE. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO UTILIZE K&N’S 32oz
PUMP SPRAY CLEANER (P/N 99-0621) WHEN SERVICING LARGE OR DIESEL
APPLICATION K&N AIR FILTERS.
Spray K&N Air Filter Cleaner onto both sides of
the air filter until it completely saturates the pleated material.
A. Apply K&N Air Filter Cleaner to clean
side of filter
B. Apply K&N Air Filter Cleaner to dirty side of filter
Allow cleaner to soak into both sides of air
filter for 10 minutes to loosen the dirt. Do not let cleaner dry
on air filter.
CAUTION: THE USE OF ANY OTHER CLEANING SOLUTION
OR METHOD COULD DAMAGE THE FILTER!
2. RINSE
(SEE FIGURE
2)
Rinse off air filter with cool low-pressure water.
Allow gravity to flush dirt out of air filter by applying water to
the clean side of the filter; up and down the length of the
pleats.
Continue to rinse the filter until all traces of
cleaner are gone. If the filter is extremely dirty it may be
necessary to repeat steps 1 and 2. If there are spots of dirt
remaining on the filter, spray each spot directly with cleaner,
allow a few minutes for it to soak and repeat rinsing step.
3. DRY
After rinsing, gently shake off excess water and
allow filter to dry naturally. Do not proceed to the oiling
step until the filter is completely dry.
CAUTION: THE
USE OF ANY OTHER DRYING METHODS (I.E. COMPRESSED AIR, DRYER
HEATERS, HEAT GUNS) COULD DAMAGE FILTER.
4. OILING
(SEE FIGURE
3)
RECOMMENDATION: FOR BEST RESULTS USE K&N AIR
FILTER OIL.
Apply K&N Air Filter Oil liberally to the dirty
side of the filter only. This will allow for a visual reference of
complete coverage.
A. If using a K&N squeeze bottle, squeeze
bead of oil along the crown of each pleat using the lip on the
squeeze bottle tip as a guide. Utilize graduated view strip on
bottle to dispense proper amount of oil.
B. If using a K&N aerosol spray, spray an
even amount of oil along the crown of each pleat.
Wait 20 minutes for the oil to be absorbed into
the filter media. Inspect the clean side of the filter for any
areas that are lighter in color. Touch up these areas in the media
by applying oil to the dirty side of the filter. Continue
oiling procedure until there is an even red color over the entire
surface of the clean and dirty side of filter.
