Hyundai Palisade (LX2): Maintenance / Air cleaner

Filter Replacement

The air cleaner filter can be cleaned for inspection using compressed air.

Do not attempt to wash or to rinse it, as water will damage the filter.

If soiled, the air cleaner filter must be replaced.

Replace the filter according to the Maintenance Schedule.

1. Pull down the air cleaner filter cover (1).

2. Pull down the lever (2) to the UNLOCK position.

3. Replace the air cleaner filter.

4. Reassemble the air cleaner cover in the reverse order.

Information

If the vehicle is operated in extremely dusty or sandy areas, replace the air cleaner filter more often than the usual recommended intervals (refer to "Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions" in this chapter).

NOTICE

• Do not drive with the air cleaner filter removed. This will result in excessive engine wear.
• When removing the air cleaner filter, be careful that dust or dirt does not enter the air intake, or damage may result.
• Use HYUNDAI genuine parts. Use of non-genuine parts could damage the air flow sensor.
