Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Warm the engine to operating temperature, then disconnect the battery for safety.
2. Drain Oil: Place a drain pan beneath the oil filter housing and remove the old filter carefully. Allow excess oil to drain completely.
3. Remove Old Gasket: Clean the gasket surface with a solvent‑free cleaner, ensuring no debris remains.
4. Install New Filter: Place the new filter element onto the housing, aligning it with the mounting flange. Apply the supplied gasket and secure with the included screws.
5. Tighten to Specified Torque: Use a torque wrench set to 10–12 Nm (or as per vehicle manual) to avoid over‑tightening or under‑tightening.
6. Refill Oil: Reinstall the oil filler cap and add the recommended oil type and volume for your vehicle model.
7. Check for Leaks: Start the engine, let it reach operating temperature, then inspect the filter area for any signs of leakage.
