When the hybrid system output restric-
tion control or brake control operates,
the buzzer sounds and a message is
displayed on the multi-information dis- play, head-up display and naviga-
tion/multimedia system screen to alert
the driver.
Depending on the situat
ion, output restric-
tion control operates to either limit accel-
eration or restrict output as much as
possible.
■Hybrid system output restriction
control is operating (acceleration
limitation control)
■Hybrid system output restriction
control is operating (control to
restrict output as much as possible)
●Do not subject the area around the
sensors to any impacts
●Do not damage the sensors, and
always keep them clean
■Handling the suspension
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes to the height or incline of the
vehicle may prevent the sensors from
correctly detecting static objects, may
cause the system not operate, or may
cause the system to operate unnecessar-
ily.
NOTICE
■Preventing unnecessary operation
In the following situations, turn the Park-
ing Support Brake func tion (for static
objects) OFF. The system may operate
even though there is no possibility of a
collision.
●A chassis roller, chassis dynamo, free
roller or similar equipment is being
used for an inspection, etc.
●The vehicle is being loaded onto a ship,
truck or other transport vessel
●The suspension has been lowered or
tires that have a different size than the
genuine tires are equipped
●The height of the vehicle has drastically
changed due to the carried load (the
nose tilts up or down).
●A towing hook is installed

(  P.248), if the Parking Support Brake
function (static objects) is enabled
(  P.254), the front or rear sensors detect
an object and brake control is performed,
the Lexus parking assist-sensor buzzer will
sound to notify the driver of the approxi-
mate distance to the object.
■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

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of the sys-
tem
The driver is solely responsible for safe
driving. Always driv e safely, taking care
to observe your surroundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor function is a sup-
plementary function which alerts the
driver that a vehicle is present in the blind
spot. Do not overly rely on the Blind Spot
Monitor function. The function cannot
judge if it is safe to change lanes, there-
fore over reliance could cause an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious injury.
According to conditions, the system may
not function correctly. Therefore the
driver’s own visual confirmation of safety
is necessary.

■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 power switch is
turned to 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 power switch to ON
mode will recall that key’s registered air
conditioning settings.
●When the power 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

■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 defogger
switch during cool air operation in
extremely humid weather. The difference
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
part of the windshield or to the side of
the front pillars when the windshield
wiper de-icer is on.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system
on longer than necessary when the
hybrid system is off.
■When repairing/replacing parts of
the air conditioning system
Have repair/replace ment performed by
your Lexus dealer. When a part of the air
conditioning system, such as the evapo-
rator, is to be re placed, it must be
replaced with a new one.
