Smog Certification Note:
The California Air Resource Board
(CARB) requires that an E.O.
identification label be applied to the
vehicle in order to pass a smog
check inspection when a High
Performance Intake Kit has been
installed.
You must place the E.O. label
provided on or near the intake kit
after installation so that a smog
check technician can easily verify
the E.O. number.
∗
Engage parking brake and start your engine. Listen for abnormal noises. If an air leak is detected,
re-inspect hoses and connections as they may need to be repositioned and tightened.
∗ S&B FILTERS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU KEEP YOUR OEM INTAKE SYSTEM IN THE EVENT
IT IS REQURIED IN THE FUTURE.
∗ In order to maintain your warranty, all connections and components must be checked periodically for
alignment and for proper tension on all connections. Failure to do so will void your warranty.
∗ Use only S&B Filter cleaning and oil products to service your filter. Using any other brand oil and or
cleaners may void your warranty.
