windshield defogger to remove the
fog, condensation, or ice. (P.296)
●If water droplets cannot be properly
removed from the area of the wind-
shield in front of the front camera by
the windshield wipers, replace the

2104-5. Using the driving support systems
●In the following situations, if the situation has changed (or the vehicle has been driven for
some time) and the normal operating conditions are detected, the message will disappear
and the system will become operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Lexus dealer.
• When the temperature around the radar sensor is outside of the operational range, such
as when the vehicle is in the sun or in an extremely cold environment
• When the front camera cannot detect objects in front of the vehicle, such as when driving
in the dark, snow, or fog, or when brig ht lights are shining into the front camera
When the temperature around the front
camera is outside of the operational range,
such as when the vehicle is in the sun or in an
extremely cold environment
If the front camera is hot, such as after the
vehicle had been parked in the sun, use the
air conditioning system to decrease the tem-
perature around the front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the vehicle
was parked, depending on its type, the sun-
light reflected from the surface of the sun-
shade may cause the temperature of the
front camera to become excessively high.
If the front camera is cold, such after the
vehicle is parked in an extremely cold envi-
ronment, use the air conditioning system to
increase the temperature around the front
camera.
The area in front of the front camera is
obstructed, such as when the hood is open
or a sticker is attached to the part of the
windshield in front of the front camera.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc. to
clear the obstruction.

WARNING
■When using the intuitive parking
assist
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle
being unable to be driven safely and pos-
sibly cause an accident.
●Do not use the sensor at speeds in
excess of 6 mph (10 km/h).
●The sensors’ detection areas and reac-
tion times are limited. When moving
forward or reversin g, check the areas
surrounding the vehicle (especially the
sides of the vehicl e) for safety, and
drive slowly, using the brake to control
the vehicle’s speed.
●Do not install accessories within the
sensors’ detection areas.
●The area directly under the bumpers is
not detected.
Thin posts or objects lower than the
sensor may not be detected when
approached, even if they have been

1Press the automatic mode switch or
select “AUTO” on the sub function
menu. ( P.300)
2 Press the outside/recirculated air
mode switch to switch to automatic
air intake mode. (if equipped)
The air conditioning system automatically
switches between outside air and recircu-
lated air modes.
3Adjust the temperature setting.
4 To stop the operation, press the off
switch or select “OFF” on the sub
function menu. ( P.300)
If the fan speed settin g or air flow modes
are operated, the automatic mode indica-
tor goes off. However, automatic mode for
functions other than th at operated is main-
tained.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically accord-
ing to the temperature setting and the
ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until
warm or cool air is ready to flow immedi-
ately after the automatic mode switch is
pressed or “AUTO” is selected.
Cool air may blow around the upper body
even when the heater is on due to sunlight.
■Automatic mode for air intake control (if
equipped)
In automatic mode, the system detects
exhaust gas and other pollutants and auto-
matically switches between outside air and
recirculated air modes.
When the dehumidification function is off,
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function.
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the air-
flow is given to the front seats, reducing
the airflow and air co nditioning effect
on the rear seats. When in S-FLOW
mode, airflow from the rear air condi-
tioning system is stopped. (RX350L)
Operation in S-FLOW mode differs
according to the following conditions:
 Priority is given to the driver’s seat
only when:
Manual S-FLOW mode: When no
passenger is judged to be in the
front passenger seat.
Automatic S-FLOW mode: When
no passengers are judged to be in
the front passenger seat or rear
seats.
 Priority is given to the front seats
when: Manual S-FLOW mode is
selected or no passengers are
judged to be in the rear seats when
in automatic S-FLOW mode.
 S-FLOW mode will be disabled
when: A passenger is judged to be
in a rear seat when in automatic
S-FLOW mode.
Depending on the set temperature, opera-
tion in S-FLOW mode may not change as
described above.
When certain conditions are met and pri-
ority is given to the driver’s seat only, the
temperature indicator for the front passen-
ger side will turn off.
How the system judges if a passenger is in
the vehicle: P.305
