General tips for better speech recognition:
<Noise>
Noise may confuse the speech recognition system. You
usually get better performance from the system in quieter
conditions:

The air conditioning/heater fan creates noise. Turn it down
or off for better speech system performance.
 Driving at high speeds creates louder engine noise and wind
noise. You may get better results at lower speeds.
 An open window or an open moon roof results in more noise
in the vehicle. Close all windows for better results.
 Noisy rainstorms can also reduce performance.
 If passengers are talking while you use the speech system,
it may be confused by their speech. You will get better
results if all occupants of the vehicle are quiet while the
system is listening for commands.
<When to speak>
Personal calling — the system is only listening for about 5
seconds after it prompts you to speak. If the system does not
hear a response, it will prompt you again, or cancel the
transaction. If you begin to speak too soon, it will tell you
“Slower, please”. Try pausing for a half second before
speaking. <How to speak>

Speak forcefully and clearly. The noisier the environment,
the louder you need to speak. If you are in the driver’s seat,
speak facing the front of the vehicle. If you are a passenger,
speak facing the inside rear view mirror.
 Speak calmly and naturally. The system may sometimes fail
to hear your repeated attempts to give a command. If your
speech is distorted by shouting or frustration, this may
cause more errors.
 People with high− pitched voices may have better results by
speaking in a deeper, lower−pitched voice. However, do not
lower the volume of the voice.
 Avoid speaking with a rising intonation, like asking a
question. Use a flat or falling intonation, like giving an
answer.

Good Blown
a. Look carefully at the fuse. If the thin wire is broken, the fuse
has blown. If you are not sure or if it is too dark to see, try
replacing the suspected fuse with one of the same value that
you know is good.
b. Only install a fuse with the amperage rating designated on
the fuse box lid.
If you do not have a spare fuse, in an emergency you can pull
out the “CIG”, “RADIO NO.1” or “SEAT HEATER” fuse, which
may be dispensable for normal driving, and use it if its
amperage rating is the same.
If you cannot use one of the same amperage, use one that is
lower, but as close to the rating as possible. If the amperage
is lower than that specified, the fuse might blow out again but
this does not indicate anything wrong. Be sure to get the
correct fuse as soon as possible and return the substitute to its
original clips. It is a good idea to purchase a set of spare fuses and keep them
in your vehicle for emergencies.
If the new fuse immediately blows out, there is a problem with
the electrical system. Have your Lexus dealer correct it as
soon as possible.
You should normalize the power windows and moon roof if they
do not operate automatically or the jam protection function
does not operate correctly after replacing blown fuses. To
normalize the power windows and moon roof, see “Power
window switches” on page 40 and “Moon roof” on page 103.CAUTION
Never use a fuse with a higher amperage rating, or any
other object, in place of a fuse. This may cause
extensive damage and possibly a fire.

Carpets, Windows and Seat Belts
Begin by vacuuming thoroughly to remove as much dirt as
possible. Several types of foam cleaners are available; some
are in aerosol cans and others are powders or liquids which
you mix with water to produce a foam. To shampoo the
carpets, use a sponge or brush to apply the foam. Rub in
overlapping circles. Do not apply water — the best results are
obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as possible. Read the
shampoo instructions and follow them closely.
The seat belts may be cleaned with mild soap and water or
with lukewarm water.
Use a cloth or sponge. As you are cleaning, check the belts for
excessive wear, fraying or cuts.NOTICE
 Use a good foamtype shampoo to clean the carpets.
 Do not use dye or bleach on the belts — it may
weaken them.
 Do not use the belts until they become dry.
 The windows may be cleaned with any household
window cleaner.
 Do not apply detergent to or wet the automatic wiper
control sensor when cleaning the inside of the
windshield.
 When cleaning the inside of the quarter and rear
windows, be careful not to scratch or damage the
wire antennas, heater wires or connectors.
