When should the MAF sensor be cleaned?

[attyallanlatras]

My Toyota Fortuner model 2016 manual does not show when to clean the MAF sensor. So, when is it time to do the cleaning? What are its benefits?

I clean my GrabCars' MAF every 6mos... Including throttle BODY (TB) .

Benefits :
A) Better FC, lean air-fuel mix
B) Smoother idling
C) Smoother accelerator pedal (magaan, hindi maganit... TB related)

DIY the TB by using an old rug, tb cleaner and a toothbrush.
Change the air filter every year, I just vacuum mine and reuse it. Then change every other year.
Clean MAF sensor, maybe every year or two. It depends how often you drive the car or if you notice any change in fc and or idling.
