NOTICE ! Do not use compressed air or high pressure water to clean filter. Do not expose filter to open heat or flame to dry. Excessive force will damage the filter. Oil is not needed for filter.

Step 1. Remove your re-usable air filter from your factory air box or Rugged Ridge air intake system. The factory air box and or area around the filter will need to be cleaned also.


Step 2. Lightly shake or tap the filter to remove large debris and excess dirt. A soft bristle paint brush may be needed to dislodge debris from the pleats in the filter.


Step 3. Clean filter with dish soap or a mild degreaser spray and water. Allow cleaner to soak in to penetrate dirt and debris. Do not allow cleaner to dry on filter. No more than 5 to 10 minutes.


Step
4. Thoroughly rinse filter with clean water. Do not use high pressure water to rinse. Allow air filter to air dry completely. For best results place air filter in open sunlight. Once the filter is completely dry re-install in your vehicle.
