Cleaning and replacing the engine air filter is crucial to ensure the correct supply of clean air to the engine: a clogged filter can impair its filtering capacity and the airflow required for intake. For this reason, it is recommended to periodically check the cleanliness of the filter and, if necessary, replace it even before the scheduled service.

The engine air filter housing is located at the front centre of the engine bay and the cover is secured with bayonet clips: to replace the filter, simply release the clips, lift the cover, remove the old filter, and insert the new one.
