4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
■ 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. (For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the “Owner's
Manual Supplement” or “Scheduled Maintenance”.)
■ If air flow from the vents decreases dramatically
The filter may be clogged. Check the filter and replace if necessary.
To remove the filter case, lift it
up and pull it out. Replace the fil-
ter with a new one.
The “UP” mark shown on the
filter should be pointing up.
■ Cleaning method
If the filter is dirty, clean by blow-
ing 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/cm
2
or bar).
If an air gun is not available,
have the filter cleaned by
your Lexus dealer.
