Most K&N air filters typically need to be cleaned every 50,000 miles. Cleaning your K&N filter is very simple, follow the 4 steps below:


1. CLEANING
Spray K&N filter cleaner spray or K&N Power Kleen™ generously on both sides of the filter and let it absorb for approx. 10 min. so that the dirt dissolves.
Do not let the liquid on the air filter dry


2. FLUSHING

Wash the air filter with cold running water at low pressure on the clean side until the dirt has come out of the filter and until all traces of the cleaner have disappeared. If necessary repeat steps 1 and 2.


3. DRYING

Gently shake off any remaining water and let air dry. Do not use oil until the filter is completely dry.


4. OILING

Aerosol Oil (99-5003EU)
Spray K&N air filter oil evenly onto the filter while holding the canister at a distance of approx. 8cm. Let the oil absorb for approx. 20 minutes. Spray oil on the parts that are not soaked until the filter is completely red.


(The above process is the only approved procedure for K&N air filter maintenance.)

Tested with the help of a sophisticated test bench
It is proven that, compared to open systems, K&N filters increase air flow. Even if dirty, K&N filters allow the passage of a greater volume of air than normal air filters.
Increased performance
K&N filters offer less resistance to the air flow, to the benefit of their flow rate and engine performance.
    
   
Minimum resistance
The multi-layer material filter retains dirt and dust without obstructing the passage of air.
Time saving
K&N filters should only be cleaned after 80,000-100,000 kilometers; a mileage which in the case of paper filters would require replacement 3 to 5 times, with related expense and loss of time.
Economical and ecological
Seen from a far-sighted perspective, K&N filters prove to be more than convenient, designed as they are to last over the years and therefore to reduce the production of special waste.
Backfire resistant
Backfiring, a non-excludable problem on carbureted engines, does not lead to deterioration of the K&N air filter.     
    Wide production range
K&N produces replacement filters, sports filter boxes and performance kits.
And not just for cars, but also for motorcycles, jet skis and light trucks.
Made in the USA
K&N filters are made in the USA and therefore meet all American standards, which are often much more stringent than in the rest of the world.
Engine performance
By fitting the K&N air filter recommended by experts you can count on an increase in engine performance and even an increase compared to systems without a filter.
Motor sports
K&N filters are used in all motor sports. Many of the winners of recent seasons have relied on K&N. From the legendary Baja 1000 to Formula 1, K&N filters are an absolute team favorite.
1,600,000 kilometers of full effectiveness

K&N filters are covered by a warranty of up to 1,600,000 kilometers or 10 years.
   
Ecological
K&N filters are washable and reusable and cotton production does not require felling forests.
By choosing K&N filters you contribute to saving the forest heritage.

Water repellent
Insensitive to humidity, K&N filters are not affected by rain and splashes of water and, even if wet, still allow a sufficient volume of air to pass through.

Wash the air filter with cold running water at low pressure on the clean side until the dirt has come out of the filter and until all traces of the cleaner have disappeared. If necessary repeat steps 1 and 2. Spray K&N air filter oil evenly onto the filter while holding the canister at a distance of approx. 8cm. Let the oil absorb for approx. 20 minutes.
