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 different 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 “ON” position and
the selector lever is in the “P” position.
Setting the driving position
16X162
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, tilt and telescopic steering and
outside rear view mirrors to the desired position.
2. While pushing the “SET” button, push button “1” or “2”
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
16X163
When you push button “1” or “2”, the driving position will
be automatically adjusted to the position recorded for that
button.

STEERING WHEEL AND MIRRORS
196
INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
16X016e
Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the rear of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Pushing the switch changes the mode between “AUTO”
and “DAY”.
The indicator comes on when the “AUTO” mode is selected.
“DAY” mode: The mirror surface is normal.
“AUTO” mode: If the mirror detects light from the
headlights of the vehicle behind you, the mirror surface
darkens slightly to reduce the reflected light.
When the inside rear view mirror surface changes, the outside
rear view mirror surfaces will also become darker.
When the ignition key is inserted and turned on, the inside rear
view mirror always turns on in the “AUTO” mode. When
the inside air temperature is low, it may take a little longer
for the mirror to darken in response to the detection of
headlights.
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.
16x658b
To ensure correct functioning of antiglare mirror sensors
located on both sides of the mirror, do not touch or cover
the sensors with your finger or a piece of cloth, etc.

CAUTION
Do not adjust the display while the vehicle is moving.
Be sure to adjust the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling calibration)
16x280a
“C” appears on the display in case the circling calibration is
required due to a drastic change in the magnetic field. To
rectify this, follow the calibration procedure below.
16x270
Drive the vehicle slowly (at 8 km/h (5 mph) or lower) in a circle
until the direction is displayed. If there is not enough space to
drive in a circle, drive around the block until the direction is
displayed.
After driving in 1 to 3 circles in the above method, calibration
is complete with the direction shown on the display.
If calibration cannot be performed because of the magnetized
vehicle, etc., take your vehicle to Lexus dealer.
 Do not perform circling calibration of the compass in a place
where the earth’s magnetic field is subject to interference by
artificial magnetic fields (underground parking, under a
steel tower, between buildings, roof parking, near a
crossing, near a large vehicle, etc.).
 During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon
roof, power windows, etc.) as they may interfere with the
calibration.

AIR CONDITIONING
207
If manual switching of air intake is desired
20X023a
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).
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.
In the following cases, the RECIRCULATED mode may
change to the OUTSIDE AIR mode automatically to prevent
interior fog.
 When the outside temperature becomes lower than 4 C
(39 F).
 When the air conditioning compressor malfunctions.
 When the air conditioning cooler refrigerant decreases.
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 the “AUTO”
indicator light flashes. The display changes as illustrated
below.
The sensitivity of the sensor can be adjusted only while the
vehicle has stopped.

AIR CONDITIONING

20X062d
When you turn the “TEMP” knob, the sensitivity changes from
“+3” down to “−3”. If you do not operate any button for a few
seconds or if you push a button other than the air intake control
button and temperature control knob, 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.

In the “TAPE” or “CD” mode, the applicable functions are
shown in the lowest part of the display. Push the switch
just below to turn on each function.
(b) Tone and balance
How good an audio program sounds to you is largely
determined by the mix of the treble, mid −range, and bass
levels. In fact, different kinds of music and vocal programs
usually sound better with different mixes of treble, mid− range,
and bass.
A good balance of the left and right stereo channels and of the
front and rear sound levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to a stereo recording or
broadcast, changing the right/left balance will increase the
volume of one group of sounds while decreasing the volume
of another.
22X612
Each time you push the “AUDIOTUNE” knob, the display
changes as in the following. To adjust the tone and
balance or turn on or off the automatic sound levelizer,
turn the knob.
BAS: Adjusts low− pitched tones.
MID: Adjusts mid− pitched tones.
TRE: Adjusts high− pitched tones.
FAD: Adjusts the sound balance between the front and rear
speakers.
BAL: Adjusts the sound balance between the right and left
speakers.
ASL: Turns on or off the automatic sound levelizer.
Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL): When the audio sound
becomes difficult to be heard due to road noise, wind noise,
etc. during driving, the system adjusts to the optimum volume
and tone quality according to the noise level. While the
Automatic Sound Levelizer (ASL) is on, “ASL” appears on the
display.
