a) Or every two years, whichever comes first. More frequent replacement may be needed if the vehicle is driven in areas with heavy traffic, areas with poor air quality, or areas with high dust levels. Replacement may also be needed if there is a reduction in air flow, excessive window fogging, or odors.
b) Check all fuel and vapor lines and hoses for proper hook&-up, routing, and condition. Check that the purge valve, if the vehicle has one, works properly. Replace as needed.
c) Or every four years, whichever comes first.
