Cleaning method
If the filter is dirty, clean by blowing compressed air through the filter from the downward side.
Hold the air gun 2 in. (5 cm) from the filter and blow for approximately 2 minutes at 72 psi (500 kPa, 5.0 kgf/cm2 or bar).
If it is not available, have the filter cleaned by your Lexus dealer.
Checking interval

maintenance
schedule. In dusty areas or areas with heavy traffic flow, more frequent
cleaning or
early replacement may be required. (For scheduled maintenance information,
please refer to the “Warranty and Services Guide/Owner's Manual Supplement/
