3. Remove Old Filter: Unscrew the old filter counter‑clockwise. Dispose of it responsibly.
4. Inspect Housing: Check the filter housing for cracks or debris. Clean if necessary.
5. Install New Filter: Align the filter’s “+” marking with the engine’s oil pan. Screw clockwise until snug, then give a final quarter turn.
6. Re‑fill Oil: Refill the engine with the manufacturer’s recommended oil type and quantity.
7. Check for Leaks: Start the engine and observe the filter area for any signs of leakage.
8. Reset Maintenance Light: If applicable, reset the oil change indicator according to your vehicle’s procedure.

Maintenance Tips

• Replace the filter at every oil change interval to maintain optimal filtration.
• Avoid using high‑viscosity oils that may clog the filter media.
• Inspect the filter housing for wear after every replacement; replace if damaged.
• Store unused filters in a cool, dry place to preserve media integrity.
