SWITCHES
64The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window and 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 is on when the defogger is
operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 15 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
 When cleaning the inside of the rear window, be
careful not to scratch or damage the heater wires or
connectors.
 To prevent the battery from being discharged, turn
the switch off when the engine is not running.
POWER WINDOW SWITCHES
12L248
 1
For driver’s window
2For front passenger’s window
3For left rear window
4For right rear window
To raise or lower the windows, use the switch on each
door. The passengers’ windows can also be controlled by
the switches on the driver’s door.
The power windows work when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
Retained accessory power: Even if the ignition switch is
turned to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position with all the doors
closed, the window can be operated until any of the doors is
opened (or for about 45 seconds).

GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS

w280
If the system cannot easily measure the
vehicletovehicle distance because of the following
conditions while the dynamic radar/laser cruise control is
on, the master warning light comes on, the “CRUISE”
indicator light flashes, and a warning tone sounds. At this
time the above message appears.
Dynamic radar cruise control—
 The driving pattern selector switch is set to the “SNOW”
mode.
 It is determined that it is difficult to make a measurement
because of bad weather (such as extremely hot weather)
 The wipers are operated at high speed with the wiper lever
in the “AUTO” position
Dynamic laser cruise control—
 The driving pattern selector switch is set to the “SNOW”
mode.
 It is determined that it is difficult to make a measurement
because of bad weather (such as rainy, foggy, or snowy
weather)
 The wipers are operated at high or low speeds with the
wiper lever in the “AUTO” position.
 Direct sunlight from the front In the following
cases, the dynamic radar/laser cruise
control switches to the “RADAR READY” mode:
Dynamic radar cruise control—
 The driving pattern selector switch is changed to the
“normal” or “power” position.
 The wipers are stopped or are switched to low speed or
intermittent operation. (Including intermittent and stopped
wipers in the “AUTO” position)
In the above conditions, press the control lever upward in the
“RES/ACC” direction and release it. The dynamic radar cruise
control will be restored, however, even after the weather
clears, if the setting operation cannot be performed or if the
warning message still appears, the system might have
malfunctioned. Although it is no problem to continue driving,
contact your Lexus dealer.

STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS
230
152.OUTSIDE REAR VIEWMIRRORS
16L282
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 the inside rear view mirror darkens in “AUTO” mode, the
outside rear view mirrors also darken to reduce the reflection
of the headlights of the following vehicle. For details, see
“Inside rear view mirror” on page 234. When you push the rear window and outside rear view mirror
defogger swi
tch or operate the wipers, the heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will quickly clear the mirror surface.
(See “Windshield wiper and washer switch” on page 58 and
“Rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger switch” on
page 63.)
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 rear window and outside rear view
mirror defogger switch is on.

AIR CONDITIONING
246If manual switching of air intake is desired
21L060a

Vehicles with rear air conditioning
21L156
Vehicles without rear air conditioning Each time you push the air intake control button, the mode
changes in order from the RECIRCULATED AIR mode to
AUTOMATIC mode to OUTSIDE AIR mode, then back to the
RECIRCULATED
AIR mode. Each indicator light shows which
mode is now selected.
1 RECIRCULATED mode If quick circulation of cooled air
is desired, select this mode.
2 EXHAUST GAS AUTOMATIC mode If the outside air
contains harmful substances like exhaust gas (i.e., when
the vehicle running just in front of your vehicle accelerates
rapidly), the system changes automatically from the
OUTSIDE AIR mode (with indicators
2
and 3 on) to
the RECIRCULATED mode (with indicators 1
and 2
on). If you use the EXHAUST GAS AUTOMATIC mode
and the air purifier automatic mode at the same time, air
purifying effect will be enhanced (If equipped).
3 OUTSIDE AIR mode The system will take fresh outside
air into the vehicle.
Turning off the air conditioning manually will cancel the
EXHAUST GAS AUTOMATIC mode. If you select the “AUTO”
mode during fan operating, the air conditioning turns on and
the EXHAUST GAS AUTOMATIC mode will operate.
For normal use, it is best to keep the air intake control button
set to OUTSIDE AIR mode. If recirculated air is used during
heating, the windows will fog up more easily.
To change the sensitivity of the sensor switching between
the RECIRCULA TED and OUTSIDE AIR in the AUTOMATIC
mode, push the air intake control button until you hear a
beep. The display changes as illustrated below.

AIR CONDITIONING
247
The sensitivity of the sensor can be adjusted only while the
vehicle has stopped.
21L108
When
you push either side of the “TEMP” button several times,
the sensitivity changes from “+3” down to “–3”. If you d\
o not
operate any button for a few seconds, the previous display
returns.
If manual onoff of the air conditioning is desired
Push the “A/C” button to turn the air conditioning on and push
it again to turn the air conditioning off. If you turn off the air
conditioning manually, the EXHAUST GAS AUTOMATIC
mode will be cancelled.
If the outside temperature is lowered down to around 0 C
(32 F), the air conditioning will turn off automatically. At this
time, the indicator on the A/C button is off and the EXHAUST
GAS AUTOMATIC indicator light remains on. However, the
EXHAUST GAS AUTOMA TIC mode does not operate. When
the air conditioning turns on as with the raised temperature, the
EXHAUST GAS AUTOMATIC mode resumes. If the system is used for ventilation, heating in dry weather or
removing frost or exterior fog on the windshield, turn the air
conditioning off
once it is no longer required. This will improve
fuel economy. The air conditioning can be used for year −round
automatic temperature control including cooling and
dehumidifying operation.
If the air conditioning compressor does not operate, the
indicator of the “A/C” button will blink. If the indicator of the
“A/C” button blinks even when the “A/C” button is pushed
again, have the compressor checked by your nearest Lexus
dealer.

(b) Windshield defogging and defrosting
21L068a
To remove interior fog on the windshield
Push the “FRONT WINDSHIELD” button.
To remove frost or exterior fog on the windshield
1. Place the temperature control button at the maximum
temperature.
2. Push the “FRONT WINDSHIELD” button.
3. Push the fan speed control button on the right side to obtain
a maximum air flow.
4. Leave the “A/C” button off.
When the “FRONT WINDSHIELD” button is pushed while
operating in automatic mode, the air conditioning is set to
operate and the OUTSIDE AIR mode is set. If you push the “FRONT WINDSHIELD” button once again
while in the FRONT WINDSHIELD mode, the mode then
returns to the last mode used.
CAUTION
Do not use the “FRONT WINDSHIELD” button during
cooled air operation in extremely humid weather. The
difference 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 vision.
When you turn the ignition switch on after the removal and
installation of the battery terminal, the indicator light may flash
and the operating sound of the motor may be heard. This does
not indicate a malfunction.
You may hear the operating sound of the motor about 70
seconds after the ignition switch is turned off. This does not
indicate a malfunction.

STARTING AND DRIVING
338
Dynamic laser cruise control should not be used in the
following conditions, to avoid serious injury or death.
 In bad weather (such as rain, fog, snow, sandstorms
or direct sunlight, or when raindrops or snowflakes
get in the laser radar sensor glass), the
vehicletovehicle distance will not be measured
accurately.
If the wipers are operated at high or low speeds
(including the high and low speed operation with the
wiper lever in the “AUTO” position), dynamic laser
cruise control is automatically cancelled. (In the case
of intermittent wiper operation, it is not cancelled.)
Dynamic laser cruise control is automatically
cancelled when the measurement is extremely
unstable due to bad weather.
 On the roads in heavy traffic or at sharp bends:
As an appropriate speed cannot be maintained,
serious injury or death could result.
 On slippery road surfaces (icy or snowcovered road
surfaces):
The tires will race and you will be unable to control.On steep downhill slopes:
If there is no vehicle detected ahead, the preset speed
will be easily exceeded because of inefficient engine
braking, resulting in serious injury or death. (In this
case, automatic braking will not work.) If there is a
vehicle detected ahead, the delay in deceleration
timing could cause serious injury or death.
 When the warning tone sounds frequently (because
acceleration or deceleration was repeated or
sufficient vehicletovehicle distance was not
maintained), an appropriate vehicle speed cannot be
attained, resulting in serious injury or death.
 On roads with steep and short inclines and declines,
failure to detect the vehicle ahead will shorten the
distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead,
resulting in serious injury or death.
