SWITCHES
32
HEADLIGHT DIMMER AND TURNSIGNAL SWITCH
12X002a
For high beam, push the lever forward. Pull it back for low
beam. For the headlight flasher, pull it further back.
A blue light in the instrument cluster indicates high beam or
headlight flasher is on.
The headlight flasher works even when the headlight switch is
off.
12X003a
For signaling turns, move the lever up or down in the
conventional manner.
The ignition key must be in the “ON” position.
The turn signal is self −cancelling after a turn, but after a lane
change, you may have to cancel it by hand. You can also signal
a lane change by moving the turn signal lever partway and
holding it there.
If the green light in the instrument cluster flashes faster than
normal, it indicates that the front or rear turn signal bulb has
burned out. If this indicator light does not come on, the fuse
or the indicator light itself has probably failed.

SWITCHES
33
FOG LIGHT SWITCH
12X014a
To turn on the fog lights, turn the switch to the “ON”
position. They will come on only when the headlights are
on low beam.
WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHERSWITCH
12x004g
 1Automatic control adjuster 2Washer on
To turn the wipers on, move the lever down until you reach
the desired speed setting.
The ignition switch must be in the “ON” position.
There are 3 settings:
“AUTO” position: Automatic operation
The wiper speed is determined by the amount of raindrops
detected by the windshield sensor (shown in the illustration),
and the vehicle speed.
“LO” position: Low speed operation
“HI” position: High speed operation

AUDIO
248Caring for your cassette player and tapes
For the best performance for your cassette player and tapes:
Clean the tape head and other parts regularly.

A dirty tape head or tape path can decrease sound quality
and tangle your cassette tapes. The easiest way to clean
them is by using a cleaning tape. (A wet type is
recommended.)
Use high− quality cassettes:
 Low −quality cassette tapes can cause many problems,
including poor sound, inconsistent playing speed, and
constant auto− reversing. They can also get stuck or
tangled in the cassette player.
 Do not use a cassette if it has been damaged or tangled or
if its label is peeling off.
 Do not leave a cassette in the player if you are not listening
to it, especially if it is hot outside.
 Store cassettes in their cases and out of direct sunlight.
 Avoid using cassettes with a total playing time longer than
100 minutes (50 minutes per side). The tape used in these
cassettes is thin and could get stuck or tangled in the
cassette player. Caring for your CD player and CDs

Your CD player is intended for use with 12 cm (4.7 in.) CDs
only.
 Extremely high temperature can keep your CD player from
working. On hot days, use air conditioning to cool the
vehicle interior before you listen to a CD.
 Bumpy roads or other vibrations may make your CD player
skip.
 If moisture gets into your CD player, you may not hear any
sound even though your CD player appears to be working.
Remove the CD from the player and wait until it dries.
CAUTION
CD players use an invisible laser beam which could
cause hazardous radiation exposure if directed outside
the unit. Be sure to operate the player correctly.

STARTING AND DRIVING
271
THE REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM CAMERA
31x602b
The rear view monitor system camera is located on the back
door as shown in the illustration. The camera uses a special
lens. The distance of the image that appears on the screen
differs from the actual distance.
In the following cases, it may become difficult to see the images
on the screen, even when the system is functioning.

In the dark (for example, at night)
 When the temperature near the lens is extremely high or low
 When water droplets are adhering to the camera, or when
humidity is high (for example, when it rains)
 When foreign matter (for example, snow or mud) adheres
to the camera lens
 When the sun or the beam of headlights is shining directly
into the camera lens
31x603
Check surroundings for safety.
If a bright light (for example, sunlight reflected off the vehicle
body) is picked up by the camera, the smear effect* peculiar
to the camera may occur.
*: Smear effect — A phenomenon that occurs when a bright
light (for example, sunlight reflected off the vehicle body) is
picked up by the camera; when transmitted by the camera, the
light source appears to have a vertical streak above and below
it.

STARTING AND DRIVING
272
LEXUS NIGHT VIEW SYSTEM
31X521
The Lexus night view system can help you see forward
when driving at night. If pedestrians or objects are
detected within the area reaching the tip of the low beam
to high beam, they are displayed along with the layout of
the road in the windshield as a monochrome image.
CAUTION
 This system should be used as a supplemental aid to
help you see objects. Never depend on this system
only. Be sure to view objects with your own eyes
while driving.
 This system is designed to help you see objects
better when driving in a flat area with few curves in
darkness. Use of this function in an area with many
curves or slopes or in a welllit area could cause an
accident.
Turning on the system
31x522b
The Lexus night view system turns on and the “MAIN”
indicator light comes on when you push the knob with the
ignition switch on:
When the system is turned on in the following conditions, the
head− up display (night view display) shutter opens
automatically and the image sent from the head −up display is
shown on the windshield.
 It is dark outside.
 The headlights are on.
When the vehicle starts moving in this condition, the “BEAM”
indicator light comes on, the near −infrared floodlight (night
view projector) is irradiated, and the image of the road ahead
is shown on the windshield.
You can adjust the brightness by turning the knob.

STARTING AND DRIVING
273
While the
system is on, pushing the knob turns off the “MAIN”
indicator light and the system. If you turn the ignition off with
the system turned on, the system will be turned off
automatically.
CAUTION
If the image in the headup display (night view display)
is too bright, you cannot see the surroundings through
the windshield clearly. To avoid glare, do not make the
display brighter than necessary.
31x533c
 1 Nearinfrared floodlight (Night view projector)
2Nearinfrared camera (Night view camera)
3Headup display (Night view display)
4Automatic light control sensor
The nearinfrared floodlight (night view projector which
irradiates nearinfrared light not seen by people) located
near the fog lights irradiates the area reaching from the tip
of the low beam to high beam. The nearinfrared camera
(night view camera) located on top of the windshield
converts irradiated light into an image. This image is
shown on the headup display (night view display)
located on the bottom of the windshield.
The automatic light control sensor is on top of the passenger
side instrument panel.
Do not place anything on the instrument panel and do not affix
anything on the windshield to block this sensor.

ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS

The inside of the lens of exterior lights such as headlights may
temporarily
fog up when the lens becomes wet in the rain or in
a car wash. This is not a pr oblem because the fogging is
caused by the temperature dif ference between the outside and
inside of the lens, just like the windshield fogs up in the rain.
However, if there is a large drop of water on the inside of the
lens, or if there is water pooled inside the light, contact your
Lexus dealer. LIGHT LOCATION
