ent temperature. Remove the disc from
the player and allow the player to cool
down.
If the malfunction is not rectified: Take
your vehicle to your dealer.
If an MP3 disc contains CD −DA files, only
CD− DA files are played. If an MP3 disc
contains files other than CD −DA, only MP3
files are played. (i) DVD player and DVD video disc in-
formation

MP3/WMA files
DMP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA
(Windows Media Audio) are audio
compression standards.
DThe MP3/WMA player can play MP3
and WMA files on CD−ROM, CD −R
and CD −RW discs.
The unit can play disc recordings com-
patible with ISO 9660 level 1 and level
2 and with the Romeo and Joliet file
system.
DWhen naming an MP3 or WMA file, add
the appropriate file extension (.mp3 or
.wma).
DThe MP3/WMA player plays back files
with .mp3 or .wma file extensions as
MP3 or WMA files. To prevent noise
and playback errors, use the appropri-
ate file extensions.
DThe player can play only the first ses-
sion using multi −session compatible
CDs.
DMP3 files are compatible with the ID3
Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2 (front au-
dio system only), and Ver. 2.3 formats.
The unit cannot display disc title, track
title and artist name in other formats.
DWMA files can contain a WMA tag that
is used in the same way as an ID3 tag.
WMA tags carry information such as
track title, artist name.
DThe emphasis function is available
only when playing MP3/WMA files re-
corded at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. (The
system can play MP3 files with sam-
pling frequencies of 16, 22.05, and 24
kHz. However, the emphasis function
is not available for files recorded at
these frequencies.)
DThe sound quality of MP3/WMA files
generally improves with higher bit rate-
s. In order to achieve a reasonable lev-
el of sound quality, discs recorded with
a bit rate of at least 128 kbps are rec-
ommended.
Playable bit rates
MP3 files:
MPEG1 LAYER3—64 to 320 kbps
MPEG2 LSF LAYER3—64 to 160 kbps
WMA files:
Ver. 7, 8 CBR—48 to 192 kbps
Ver. 9 CBR—48 to 320 kbps
DThe MP3/WMA player does not play
back MP3/WMA files from discs re-
corder using packet write data transfer
(UDF format). Discs should be re-
corded using “pre −mastering” software
rather than packet −write software.
DThe m3u playlists are not compatible
with the audio player.
DMP3i (MP3 interactive) and MP3PRO
formats are not compatible with the au-
dio player.
DThe MP3 player is compatible with
VBR (Variable Bit Rate).
DWhen playing back files recorded as
VBR (Variable Bit Rate) files, the play
time will not be correctly displayed if
fast− forward or reverse operations are
used.
DIt is not possible to check folders that
do not include MP3/WMA files.
DMP3/WMA files in folders up to 8 levels
deep can be played. However, the
start of playback may be delayed when
using discs containing numerous lev-
els of folders. For this reason, we rec-
ommend creating discs with no more
than two levels of folders.
DIt is possible to play up to 192 folders or
255 files on one disc.

The automatic air conditioning auto-
matically maintains the set tempera-
ture.
In the automatic operation mode, the air
conditioning selects the most suitable fan
speed, air flow, air intake and on−off the air
conditioning according to the temperature.
The ignition switch must be in the “ON”

SETTING OPERATION −automatic con-
trol
1. Push the “AUTO” button.
An indicator light will illuminate to show
that the automatic operation mode has
been selected.
Air flow quantity, switching of the diffusers,
on− off of the air conditioning and switching
of the air intake between RECIRCULATED
AIR and OUTSIDE AIR are automatically
adjusted. When you push the “AUTO”

To remove frost or exterior fog on the
windshield—
1. Push the upper side of the temperature
control button until maximum figure ap-
pears on the temperature display.
2. Push the windshield air flow button.
3. Touch “HI” of the air flow control to ob-

more quickly.
If you push the windshield air flow button
once again while in the FRONT WIND-
SHIELD mode, the mode then returns to
the last mode used.
CAUTION
Do not use the windshield air flow
button during cooled air operation in
extremely humid weather. The differ-
ence between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the windshield
could cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up blocking your vi-
sion.

REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
286
The rear view monitor system assists
the driver by displaying an image of the
view behind the vehicle while backing
up. The left and right displayed on the
screen are the same as those of the in-
side rear view mirror.
To display the rear view image on the
screen, place the selector lever in the
“R” position when the ignition switch is
in the “ON” position.
If you move the selector lever out of the “R”
position, the screen returns to the previous
screen. Operating another function of the
navigation system will display another
screen.
The rear view monitor system is a supple-
ment device intended to assist back up.
When backing up, be sure to check behind
and all around the vehicle visually.
CAUTION
DNever depend on the rear view
monitor system entirely when
backing up. Always make sure
your intended path is clear.
Use caution, just as you would
when backing up any vehicle.
DNever back up while looking only at
the screen. The image on the
screen is different from actual
conditions. Depicted distances
between objects and flat surfaces
will differ from actual distance. If
you back up while looking only at
the screen, you may hit a vehicle, a
person or an object. When backing
up, be sure to check behind and all
around the vehicle visually and
with mirrors before proceeding.
DDo not use the system when the
backdoor is not completely closed.
DIf the back of the vehicle is hit, the
position and mounting angle of the
camera may change. Be sure to
have the camera’s position and
mounting angle checked at your
Lexus dealer.
DAs the camera has a water proof
construction, do not detach, disas-
semble or modify it. This may
cause incorrect operation.
DIf the temperature changes rapidly,
such as when hot water is poured
on the vehicle in cold weather, the
system may not operate normally.

If the camera lens becomes dirty, it
cannot transmit a clear image. If
water droplets, snow, or mud ad-
here to the lens, rinse with water
and wipe with a soft cloth. If the
lens is extremely dirty, wash it with
a mild cleanser and rinse.
DDo not allow organic solvent, car
wax, window cleaner or glass coat
to adhere to the camera. If this hap-
pens, wipe it off as soon as pos-
sible.
DUse your own eyes to confirm the
vehicle’s surroundings, as the dis-
played image may become faint or
dark, and moving images will be
distorted, or not entirely visible
when the outside temperature is
low. When backing up, be sure to
check behind and all around the ve-
hicle visually and with mirror be-
fore proceeding.
When replacing the tires, please con-
sult your Lexus dealer. If you replace
the tires, the area displayed on the
screen may change.

APPENDIX
292
This navigation system calculates the
current vehicle position using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, the accurate posi-
tion may not be shown depending on
the satellite condition, road configura-
tion, vehicle condition or other circum-
stances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) de-
veloped and operated by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Defense provides an accurate cur-
rent vehicle position, normally using 4 or
more satellites, and in some cases 3 satel-
lites. The GPS system has a certain level
of inaccuracy. While the navigation sys-
tem will compensate for this most of the
time, occasional positioning errors of up to
300 feet (100 m) can and should be expec-
ted. Generally, position errors will be cor-
rected within a few seconds.
When your vehicle is receiving signals
from the satellites, the “GPS” mark ap-
pears at the top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle
position on the map display. Tunnels, tall
buildings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may ob-
struct the GPS signals.
The GPS satellites may not send signals
due to repairs or improvements being
made to them.
Even when the navigation system is re-
ceiving clear GPS signals, the vehicle
position may not be shown accurately or
inappropriate route guidance may occur in
some cases.
NOTICE
The installation of window tinting
may obstruct the GPS signals. Most
window tinting contains some metal-
lic content that will interfere with GPS
signal reception of the antenna in the
instrument panel. We advise against
the use of window tinting on vehicles
equipped with navigation systems.
