I cleaned mine after about 13 or 14 months while I did a tuneup..I got that kit too. Definitely about every other oil change or so it should be done

Is it dirty? If so clean it if not leave it alone. Its not important to clean it every X miles, it important to clean it when it needs it reguardless of mileage.
