CAUTION:

Operating the engine with the air cleaner/filter
off can cause you or others to be burned. The air
cleaner not only cleans the air, it stops flame if
the engine backfires. If it isn’t there, and the
engine backfires, you could be burned. Don’t
drive with it off, and be careful working on
the engine with the air cleaner/filter off.

NOTICE:

If the air cleaner/filter is off, a backfire can cause
a damaging engine fire. And, dirt can easily
get into your engine, which will damage it.
Always have the air cleaner/filter in place
when you’re driving.

Supercharger Oil

Unless you are technically qualified and have the proper
tools, you should let your dealer or a qualified service
center perform this maintenance.

When to Check

Check oil level every 30,000 miles (50 000 km) or every
36 months, whichever occurs first.

What Kind of Oil to Use

Use only the recommended supercharger oil. See
“Recommended Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.
