Cleaning method
If the filter is dirty, clean by blowing compressed air through the filter from the underside.
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 an air gun is not available, have the filter cleaned by your Lexus dealer.

maintenance
schedule. In dusty areas or areas with heavy traffic flow, early replacement may
be
required. (For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the “Owner's
