Air conditioning filter maintenance
The air conditioning filter must be changed regularly to maintain air conditioning
efficiency.
Checking interval
Inspect and replace the air conditioning filter according to the maintenance sched-
ule. In dusty areas or areas with heavy traffic flow, early replacement may be
required.
● If air flow from the vents decreases dramatically, the air conditioning filter may
be clogged. Check the filter and replace it if necessary.
(For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the "Lexus Service
Booklet" or "Lexus Warranty Booklet".)
●
If air fresheners, etc. are used inside the vehicle, the service life of the deo-
dorizing function of the air conditioning filter with deodorizing function may
be reduced significantly. If odors from the air conditioning system become a
concern, replace the filter.
