It must be replaced when necessary, and should not be washed.

If the vehicle is operated in extremely dusty or sandy areas, replace the element more often than the usual recommended intervals. (Refer to “Maintenance under severe usage conditions” in this chapter.)
CAUTION
- Do not drive with the air cleaner removed; this will result in excessive engine wear.
