■Registering air conditioning settings to electronic keys
●Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic key and turning the power switch to ON
mode will recall that key’s registered air conditioning settings.
●When the power switch is turned off, the current air conditioning settings will auto-
matically be registered to the electronic key that was used to unlock the vehicle.
The system may not operate correctly if more than one electronic key is in the vicinity
or if the smart access system with push-button start is used to unlock a passenger
door.
Settings for the electronic key and the co rresponding door can be changed. Contact
your Lexus dealer.

ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow imme-
diately after is pressed.
●Cool air may blow around the upper body even when the heater is on due to sun-
light.
■Humidity sensor
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high. Turning “A/C”
on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the windshield effectively.

vehicle and the temperature of the wind-
shield, is provided to detect fog on the front
windscreen. Due to the sensor, when auto-
matic mode is set the air conditioning may
make the following controls:
●Changing the amount of air flow
●Changing the amount of air introduced from
outside when in outside air mode with the air
vents in the position
●Changing the settings of the air vents to
