Two filter technologies:

• the crimped, or “spin-on”, filter, which incorporates the filtration, bypass and non-return functions (valve)
• immersed rechargeable or cartridge filters, contained in a housing and performing only the filtration function. The housing performs the other functions.

Three types of media:

• Cellulose
• Semi-synthetic (cellulose + synthetic fibre)
• Synthetic (polyamide)

The medium is adapted to the vehicle maintenance schedule provided by the manufacturer.

• Check the mileage recommended by the vehicle manufacturer in the service manual. Complying with the maintenance schedule helps protect the engine.
• In “normal” conditions, this generally varies between 10,000 and 15,000 km, or even up to 30,000 km for certain engines.
• In cases of severe use (small journeys, hills when cold, high speeds on motorway, traffic jams, pulling a caravan, etc.), these distances will be reduced.
