SWITCHES

OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
DEFOGGER SWITCH
To turn the electric outside rear view mirror defogger on,
push the switch.
The ignition key must be in the ONº position.
The thin heater wires on the heater panels in the outside rear
view mirrors will quickly clear the surface. Keep your hands off
the mirror faces when the switch is on. An indicator light will
illuminate to indicate the defogger is operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 5 minutes.
CAUTION
Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch them
when the switch is on.
If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate the
switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the switch
once again to turn the defogger off. Continuous use may cause
the battery to discharge, especially during stop-and-go
driving. The defogger is not designed to dry rain water or to
melt snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice, use
a spray de-icer before operating the switch.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, turn the
switch off when the engine is not running.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS

DRIVING POSITION MEMORY
SYSTEM
A microcomputer will memorize the position of the driver's
seat, and the positions of the tilt and telescopic steering, and
outside rear view mirrors. Two different driving position profiles
can be entered into the computer's memory.
Recording the driving position in the computer's memory can
only be done when the ignition key is in the ONº position and
the selector lever is in the Pº position.
Setting the driving position
1. Adjust the driver's seat, tilt and telescopic steering and
outside rear view mirrors to the desired position.
2. While pushing the SETº button, push button 1º or 2º
until the signal beeps.The beep sound means that the positions are recorded in the
computer's memory.
By repeating these two steps and pressing the remaining
button, the driving position for another driver can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select the desired position
and perform step 2. The previous memory will be erased and
the new position will be set.
To make only slight changes to an already memorized position,
the easiest way is to first activate the memorized position, then
make the desired changes and perform step 2 above.
Recalling the memorized position
When you push button 1º or 2º, the driving position will
be automatically adjusted to the position recorded for that
button.

STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS

Auto tilt away*
When the ignition key is removed, the steering column
moves forward away from the driver and also tilts up for
easy exit and entry.
When the key is inserted in the ignition switch, the steering
column returns to the previously set position.
NOTE:
* This feature can be deactivated.
Ask your Lexus dealer for details.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS
Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the side of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Be careful when judging the size or distance of any object seen
in the outside rear view mirror on the passenger's side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object seen in a convex
mirror will look smaller and farther away than if seen in a normal
flat mirror.
When you push the outside rear view mirror defogger switch,
the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will quickly
clear the mirror surface. (See Outside rear view mirror
defogger switchº on page 42.)
The rear view mirrors are rain clearing mirrors that clear the
driver's rear view when it rains. (For details, see Rain clearing
mirrorsº on page 588.)

CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so may cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur, resulting in death
or serious injuries.
Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch
them when the outside rear view mirror defogger
switch is on.
Power rear view mirror control

1Master switch2Control switch
To adjust the power rear view mirror, first place the master
switch at Lº (left) or Rº (right), and push the control
switch on the desired side.
The power rear view mirrors can be adjusted when the key is
in the ACCº or ONº position.
When the automatic transmission selector lever is shifted
into Rº position with the master switch in the Lº or Rº
position, the rear view mirrors automatically down to help
backing up.
The mirrors return to the previous position in the following
operations.
Shift the transmission lever out of Rº position.
Place the master switch in the neutral position.

Folding rear view mirrors
To fold the rear view mirror, push backward.
The rear view mirrors can be folded backward for parking in
compact areas.
CAUTION
Do not drive with the mirrors folded backward. Both the
driver and passenger side rear view mirrors must be
extended and properly adjusted before driving.
INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the rear of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Pushing the MIRRORº switch changes the mode
between AUTO and DAY.
The indicator comes on when the AUTO mode is selected.
DAY mode: The mirror surface is normal.
AUTO mode: If the mirror detects light from the headlights
of the vehicle behind you, the mirror surface darkens
slightly to reduce the reflected light.
When the ignition key is inserted and turned on, the inside rear
view mirror always turns on in the AUTO mode.

The compass may not show the correct direction in the
following conditions:
The vehicle is stopped immediately after turning.
The compass does not adjust while the vehicle is stopped.
The ignition switch is turned off immediately after turning.
The vehicle is on an inclined surface.
The vehicle is in a place where the earth's magnetic field is
subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel tower, between
buildings, roof parking, near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
The vehicle is magnetized. (There is a magnet or a metal
object on or near the inside rear view mirror.)
The battery has been disconnected.
Your vehicle is out of the set zone. Refer to the Calibrating the
compassº in this Section to set the zone number.
The compass works to calibrate the direction automatically
while the vehicle is in motion, if deviation is small.For additional precision or for complete calibrating, see
Calibrating the compassº below.
