Remove the 2 screws that hold it in and carefully pull it out. You can pick up a can of maf cleaner at most auto parts stores. Don't use anything like brakleen because some mafs have delicate parts that brakleen will destroy. Disconnect the wiring from it and step away from the car before cleaning it because the stuff might be harmful to paint....I don't know.
