Using your K&N air filter is easy. First, locate your factory air box. Then, simply remove the old air filter and drop in the new K&N filter. Make sure it fits snugly. When it comes to maintenance, you don't need to replace the filter often. But over time, it will get dirty. When it does, you can wash it. Just use a K&N filter cleaning kit. Follow the instructions on the kit to wash and oil the filter. After that, let it dry completely before putting it back in your air box. As for storage, keep it in a clean and dry place. And always check the fit before installation. If you have any issues, refer to the user manual or contact K&N's customer service.
