The rectangle/square on the ceiling should have a grill area. If you carelully stand on a chair or small ladder you should see a couple tab's (for lack of a better description) on the grill. You need to gently push them toward the grill to remove it, then the foam filter will be behind it. Wash the filter, let it dry then reinstall. If that doesn't improve the cooling you may be low on refrigerant or the condenser on the roof may need cleaning next. That will be a bit more difficult as you need to get around the condenser fan. Which could also be an issue if the condenser motor is inoperative.
