Driving
■Brake control is operating
■The vehicle is stopped by system
operation
*: If the accelerator pedal is not depressed,
“Press Brake Pedal” will be displayed.
■System operation
When the vehicle is stopped by system
operation, the Parking Support Brake func-
tion (for static objects) stops and the PKSB
OFF indicator illuminates.
■System recovery
When the Parking Support Brake function
(for static objects) is stopped by system
operation and you would like to resume
operation, either turn the Parking Support
Brake function (for static objects) ON again
( P.242), or turn the engine switch off and
then back on. Furthermore, when the vehi-
cle moves with a static object no longer in
the traveling direction of the vehicle, or
when the traveling direction of the vehicle
changes (such as when switching from
moving forward to backing up, and vice
versa), system operation automatically
resumes.
■Clearance sonar buzzer
Regardless of whether the clearance sonar
is on or off, if the Parking Support Brake
function (for static ob jects) is not stopped
( P.242), when the front or rear sensors
detect a static object and brake control is
performed, the clearance sonar buzzer also
sounds and a notification of the approxi-
mate distance to the static object is pro-
vided.
■In the unlikely event that the Parking
Support Brake function (for static
objects) mistakenly operates at a cross-
ing or elsewhere
Even in the unlikely event that the Parking
Support Brake function (for static objects)
mistakenly operates at a crossing or else-
where, brake control is canceled after
approximately 2 seconds, allowing you to
proceed forward and leave the area. Fur-
thermore, brake control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is depressed.
Depressing the accelerator pedal again
allows you to proceed forward and leave
the area.

■When the outside temperature exceeds
75°F (24°C) and the air conditioning
system is on
●In order to reduce the air conditioning
power consumption, the air conditioning
system may switch to recirculated air
mode automatically.
This may also reduce fuel consumption.
●Recirculated air mode is selected as a
default mode when the engine switch is
turned to IGNITION ON mode.
●It is possible to switch to outside air mode
at any time by pressing the outside/recir-
culated air mode switch.
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the
humidity in the vehicle is high. Pressing
“A/C” button or selecting “A/C” will
dehumidify the air from the outlets and
defog the windshield effectively.
●If you turn “A/C” off, the windows may
fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the recircu-
lated air mode is used.
■When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by the
vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle after
closing the windows, it is recommended
that the air intake mode be set to outside air
mode and the fan speed to any setting
except off.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●Setting to the recirculated air mode tem-
porarily is recommended in preventing
dirty air from entering the vehicle interior
and helping to cool the vehicle when the
outside air temperature is high.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may auto-
matically switch depending on the tem-
perature setting or the inside
temperature.
■Registering air conditioning settings to
electronic keys (vehicles with driving
position memory)
●Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic
key and turning the engine switch to
IGNITION ON mode will recall that
key’s registered air conditioning settings.
●When the engine switch is turned off, the
current air conditioning settings will auto-
matically be registered to the electronic
key that was used to unlock the vehicle.
●The system may not operate correctly if
more than one electr onic key is in the
vicinity or if the smart access system with
push-button start is used to unlock a pas-
senger door.
●The doors that can recall the air condi-
tioning setting when unlocked using the
smart access system with push-button
start can be changed.
* For details, con-
tact your Lexus dealer.
*: The doors that can recall the driving posi-
tion memory are changed at the same
time.
■Operation of the air conditioning sys-
tem in Eco mode
●In the Eco mode, the air conditioning sys-
tem is controlled as follows to prioritize
fuel efficiency
• Engine speed and compressor operation
controlled to restrict heating/cooling
capacity
• Fan speed restricted when automatic
mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning performance,
perform the following operations
• Adjust the fan speed
• Adjust the temperature setting
• Turn off Eco mode
●Even when the driving mode is set to Eco
mode, the air conditioning eco mode can
be turned off by selecting the

■When the outside temperature is low
The dehumidification function may not
operate even when “A/C” is pressed or
“A/C” is selected.
■Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning
system to the outside air mode.
●During use, various odors from inside and
outside the vehicle may enter into and
accumulate in the air conditioning sys-
tem. This may then cause odor to be
emitted from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from occur-
ring:
• It is recommended that the air condition-
ing system be set to outside air mode
prior to turning the vehicle off.
• The start timing of the blower may be
delayed for a short period of time imme-
diately after the air conditioning system is
started in automatic mode.

WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fog-
ging up
●Do not use the front windshield defog-
ger switch during cool air operation in

ence between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the windshield
can cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up, blocking your
vision.
■To prevent burns
●Do not touch the rear view mirror sur-
faces when the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.
●Vehicles with windshield wiper de-
icer: Do not touch the glass at lower
