SWITCHES

Automatic headlight leveling system
The headlight beam level is always maintained automatically
at the proper level in all loading conditions so that your
headlights do not dazzle other road users.
If there is a problem somewhere in this system, the message
“CHECK HEADLIGHT” appears on the multi−information
display. At this time, the master warning light comes on and a
warning tone sounds. If the warning message appears, have
your vehicle checked by your Lexus dealer as soon as
possible.
Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) provides the proper
headlight beam level according to the current driving
conditions. T his system moves the headlight beam left or right
according to the turning angle of the tires. The synergy of this
system and the automatic headlight leveling system improves
visibility at the intersections and curves.
The system operates when the vehicle speed increases above
10 km/h (6 mph), and stops when the vehicle speed drops
below 10 km/h (6 mph).
The system can operate within the limited range of the tires
turning angle. If you do not want to activate the system, you can cancel
the system.
Adaptive Front Lighting System cancel switch is located in the
switch box.
G12017
Push the button to use the switch box. To cancel the
system, push the “AFS” switch. To turn it on, push it
again.
When the system is canceled, the “AFS OFF” indicator lights
up in the instrument cluster.
If the system fails, the indicator light in the instrument cluster
will flash. If this occurs, have your vehicle checked by your
Lexus dealer.
After operation, be sure to close the switch box to its original
position.

CAUTION
To reduce the chance of injury in case of an accident or
a sudden stop, keep the switch box closed when not in
use while driving.
HEADLIGHT DIMMER AND TURNSIGNAL SWITCHES
G12004
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.

SWITCHES
48
G12005
For signaling turns, move the lever up or down in the
conventional manner.
The engine switch must be selected in “IG−ON” mode.
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.
FOG LIGHT SWITCH
G12006
To turn on the fog lights, twist the band of the headlight
lever to the fog light mark. They will come on only when
the headlights are on low beam.
When the fog lights are on, the indicator lights up in the
instrument cluster.

AUDIO
334Caring for your CD player or DVD player, and discs

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

Use only CDs marked as s hown above. The following
products may not be playable on your CD player.

REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM CAMERA
G31078
The rear view monitor system camera is located on the trunk
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
31L357
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.

ADDING WASHER FLUID
If the washer tank becomes nearly empty, add washer
fluid.
You may use plain water as washer fluid. However, in cold
areas where temperatures range below the freezing point, use
washer fluid containing antifreeze. This product is available at
your Lexus dealer and most auto parts stores. Follow the
manufacturer’s directions for how much to mix with water.
NOTICE
Do not use engine antifreeze or any other substitute
because it may damage your vehicle’s paint.
CHECKING THE HEADLIGHT AIM

Before checking the headlight aim:
1. Be sure that the body around the headlight is not deformed.
2. Park the vehicle on a level spot.
3. The driver gets into the driver’s seat and puts the vehicle in
a state readying for a driving (with a full tank).
4. Bounce the vehicle several times.
