DRIVING POSITION MEMORYSYSTEM
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 dif ferent 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.

Conditions for memorized position activation

Ignition key ONº and selector lever in Pº position.
All parts of the memorized positions can be activated.
 Key not in ignition switch and within 30 seconds of opening
driver's door.
The memorized position can be activated, except for the tilt
and telescopic steering.
If any driving position memory switch is pushed while one of the
memorized driving position profiles is being activated, the
operation will stop.
To activate the system, push the desired button (1º or 2º)
again.
The driving position memory control system cannot be
operated while the vehicle is moving.
If the vehicle's battery is disconnected, the computer's
memory will be erased and the memorized positions will have
to be set again.
CAUTION
 Do not start the vehicle while the adjustments are
being made.
 Take care not to select the wrong button, or the seat
could strike the rear passenger or hit your body
against the steering wheel. If this happens, you can
stop the movement by pressing another driving
position memory switch.

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 47.)
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 619.)

Using your audio system: some basics
The following instructions are for the rear passengers.
Please let the rear passengers read and follow the
instructions when the rear passengers use the rear seat
entertainment system.
This section describes some of the basic features of the rear
seat entertainment system. Some information may not pertain
to your system.
Your audio system adjusts to the optimum volume and tone
quality automatically. While the system is adjusting the audio
sound, the audio sound fades out and then fades in.
The rear seat entertainment system is designed for the rear
passengers to enjoy audio and DVD video separately from the
front audio system.
The rear seat entertainment system can be operated when the
ignition key is in the ACCº or ONº position.
The rear passengers can enjoy all modes (AM and FM radio,
cassette tape player, compact disc player with changer and
DVD player) on the rear seat entertainment system only if a
cassette tape and a compact disc are loaded in the front audio
system. The rear seat entertainment system can play DVD video, audio
CD, video CD, CD text, dts-CD or DVD audio only when a disc
is loaded in the DVD player.
You can enjoy videos and sound when your personal audio
system is connected to the input terminal adapter on the rear
console box. For details, refer to the manufacturer's
instructions.
You can enjoy the rear seat entertainment system with
commercial headphone. See Headphone input jacksº on
page 359 in this Section for details.
You can also enjoy the rear seat entertainment system with a
wireless headphone. The wireless headphone can be used
within rear seat. If the signal becomes weak, the headphone
will mute. For details, refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
With some wireless headphone generally available in the
market, it may be difficult to catch sound properly. Lexus
recommends the use of Lexus genuine wireless headphone.
You can purchase a wireless headphone at a Lexus dealer.
