passenger's seat). To turn the seat heaters on, turn the
dials forward. The indicator lights come on. To turn them

STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS
231
Automatic tilt±away steering column*
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 ªOutside 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 ªRain clearing
mirrorsº on page 638.)

AIR CONDITIONING
257
The air conditioning filter is behind the glove box.
The air conditioning filter may clog after long use. The filter
may need to be replaced if the air flow of the air conditioner and
heater experiences extreme reductions in operating ef ficiency,
or if the windows begin to fog up easily.
To maintain the air conditioning efficiency, inspect and replace
the air conditioning filter according to the maintenance
schedule. In dusty areas or areas with heavy traffic flow, such
as inner city or desert areas, early replacement may be
required. (For scheduled maintenance information, please
refer to the ªOwner's Manual Supplement/Scheduled
Maintenanceº.)1. Open the glove box and unhook the cip as shown
above.
2. Push in each side of the glove box to disconnect the
claws.
