WARNING

If dirt or dust is allowed to pass through into the throttle body assy, the throttle may become stuck, possibly causing accident. Replace the air cleaner element according to the maintenance chart.

NOTICE

If dirt gets through into the engine, excessive engine wear and possibly engine damage will occur.

NOTICE

Use only the recommended air cleaner element (Kawasaki part number 11013-0041). Using another air cleaner element will wear the engine prematurely or lower the engine performance.
