Using your K&N Generation 2 Carbon Fiber Air Box is easy. First, install it in your racing vehicle following the included instructions. Make sure the air horn seals are properly in place for a good seal. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the filter for dirt and debris. If it looks dirty, it's time to clean it. Use K&N cleaner to gently wash the filter, then let it dry completely. After that, apply K&N oil to the filter as directed. Avoid using harsh chemicals or tools on the filter as this could damage it. With proper care, your air box will serve you well for many races.
