NOTE:
Disconnecting the negative battery cable erases pre-programmed electronic memories. Write down all memory settings before disconnecting the negative battery cable. Some radios will require an anti-theft code to be entered after the battery is reconnected. The anti-theft code is typically supplied with your owner’s manual. In the event your vehicles anti-theft code cannot be recovered, contact an authorized dealership to obtain your vehicle’s anti- theft code. -

K &N AIR FILTER MONITOR LIGHT: Some vehicles are equipped with an “Air Filter Monitor” system that will send a message to the instrument cluster indicating that the air filter needs to be replaced. This system is calibrated for the OEM intake system and air filter and will not be accurate when K&N products are in use. Always refer to WWW.KNFILTERS.COM for K&N air filter service procedures. The “Air Filter Monitor” system must be disabled to prevent the monitor from setting on and causing a factory dealership visit to reset the system. Follow the “Air Filter Monitor” system procedure listed in the factory owner’s manual.
ROAD TESTING
- Start the engine with the transmission in neutral or park, and the parking brake engaged. Listen for air leaks or odd noises. For air leaks secure hoses and connections. For odd noises, find cause and repair before proceeding. This kit will function identically to the factory system except for being louder and much more responsive.
- Test drive the vehicle. Listen for odd noises or rattles and fix them as necessary.
- If the road test is fine, you can now enjoy the added power and performance from your kit.
- K&N Engineering, Inc., requires cleaning the intake system’s air filter element every 100,000 miles. When used in dusty or off-road environments, our filters will require cleaning more often. We recommend that you visually inspect your filter once every 25,000 miles to determine if the screen is still visible. When the screen is no longer visible in some place on the filter element, it is time to clean it. To clean and re-oil, purchase our filter Recharger® service kit, part number 99-5050 or 99-5000, and follow the easy instructions.
