Changing The Air Filter - Ducati MONSTER S4Rs Anleitung- Und Instandhaltungsheft

Changing the air filter (fig. 41)
The air filter must be changed at the intervals indicated in
the "Routine maintenance" schedule (see Warranty Card).
To access the airbox, lift the fuel tank as described in
(page 45).
To remove the filter, unhook the tabs (1) securing the cover
on both sides of the airbox and remove the cover (2).
E
Remove the old filter cartridge (3, fig. 42) and fit a new one.
Important
A dirty filter reduces the amount of intake air, which
increases fuel consumption, reduces engine power and
causes deposits to form on the spark plugs.
Do not use the motorcycle without a filter; as impurities in
the air could get into the engine and cause damage.
Reinstall the filter correctly in its housing in the airbox,
as shown in the figure, and refit all the parts originally
removed.
Important
If the motorcycle is used in very damp or dusty
conditions, the air filter cartridge should be renewed more
frequently than indicated in the routine maintenance table
(see the Warranty Card).
