The automatic light control sensor is on top of the driver's side
instrument panel.
Do not place anything on the instrument panel, and/or do not
affix anything on the windshield to block this sensor.
When the headlights are on, they automatically turn off about
30 seconds after any side door is opened and closed with the
ignition key turned to the ªACCº or ªLOCKº position.* If you
want to turn off the lights immediately, push the ªLOCKº button

be turned off immediately by pushing the ªLOCKº button on the
wireless remote control key with all the doors locked.
NOTE:* The time before turning off the lights can be changed.Ask your Lexus dealer for details.
If any of the side door is kept opened, the lights automatically
turn off after 30 minutes.
When the headlight switch is on with all the doors locked,

turns off the headlights.
If you are going to park for over one week, make sure the
headlight switch is off.

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.
For signaling turns, move the lever up or down in the
conventional manner.
The ignition key must be in the ªONº position.
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.

Never leave anyone (particularly a small child) alone
in your vehicle, especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could use the power
window switches and get trapped in a window.
Unattended p erson (particularly a small child) can be
involved in a serious accident.
 Never try jamming any part of your body to activate
the jam protection function intentionally.
 The jam protection function may not work if
something gets caught just before the window fully
closed.EMERGENCY FLASHER SWITCH
To turn on the emergency flashers, push the switch. To
turn them off, push the switch again.
All the turn signal lights will flash. The emergency flashers will
work with the engine running or off and with or without the
ignition key.
Turn on the emergency flashers to warn other drivers if you
must stop your vehicle where it might be a traffic hazard.
Always pull your vehicle as far off the road as possible.
The turn signal light switch will not work when the emergency
flashers are in operation.

AUDIO
272
Push these buttons to choose either an AM or FM station.
ªAMº, ªFM1º, ªFM2º or ªFM TYPEº appears on the d\
isplay.Turn this knob to the right to step up the frequency or to
the left to step down.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo reception when a
stereo broadcast is received. ªSTº appears on the display. If
the signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the amount of
channel separation to prevent the weak signal from creating
noise. If the signal becomes extremely weak, the radio
switches from stereo to mono reception. In this case, ªSTº
disappears from the display.

DRIVING TIPS
478
Tires
Ensure that your vehicle's tires are properly inflated. Adjust
the tire inflation pressure to the recommended cold tire
inflation pressure indicated below.
Tire inflation pressure: 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 32 psi)
 The trailer tires should be inflated to the pressure
recommended by the trailer manufacturer in respect to the
total trailer weight.
Trailer lights
Your vehicle is equipped with a wire harness stored in the rear
end underbody. Use either of them to connect and operate the
trailer lights. However, the trailer lights must comply with
federal, state/provincial and local regulations. See your local
recreational vehicle dealer or rental agency for the correct type
of wiring and relays for your trailer. Check for correct operation
of the turn signals and stop lights each time you hitch up. Direct
splicing may damage your vehicle's electrical system and
cause a malfunction of your lights.
Break±in schedule
Lexus recommends that you do not tow a trailer with a new
vehicle or a vehicle with any new power train component
(engine, transmission, differential, wheel bearing, etc.) for the
first 800 km (500 miles) of driving.
Maintenance
 If you tow a trailer, your vehicle will require more frequent
maintenance due to the additional load. For this
information, please refer to the scheduled maintenance
information in the ªOwner's Manual Supplement/Scheduled
Maintenanceº.
 Retighten all fixing bolts of the towing ball and bracket after
approximately 1000 km (600 miles) of trailer driving.
