Installation Guide

1. Locate the engine air intake housing and open the cover. Remove any existing filter by releasing the clips or screws that secure it.
2. Inspect the intake duct for debris; clean if necessary to prevent contamination of the new filter.
3. Place the MANN‑FILTER C 1820 into the housing, aligning the mounting tabs with the corresponding slots.
4. Secure the cover and ensure all fasteners are tightened to manufacturer specifications.
5. Check for proper seal and verify that no air leaks exist around the filter edges.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter every 10,000 km or after exposure to dusty environments. Replace if visibly clogged.
• Avoid using compressed air directly on the filter; this can damage the media and reduce filtration efficiency.
• Store unused filters in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity.
