2785-3. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
■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.
●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.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on dusty roads such as tun-
nels or in heavy traffic, set the out-
side/recirculated air mode switch to the
recirculated air mode. This is effective in
preventing outside air from entering the
vehicle interior. During cooling opera-
tion, setting the recirculated air mode will
also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may auto-
matically switch de pending on the tem-
perature setting or the inside
temperature.
■Registering air condit ioning settings to
electronic keys (vehicles with driving
position memory)
●Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic
key and turning the power switch to ON
will recall that key’s registered air condi-
tioning 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 drive mode
●In Eco drive mode, the air conditioning
system is controlled as follows to priori-
tize 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
• Turn off eco air conditioning mode ( P.279)
• Adjust the fan speed
•Turn off Eco drive mode
■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 pe riod of time imme-

NOTICE
■Humidity sensor
In order to detect fog on the windshield,
a sensor which monitors the temperature
of the windshield, the surround humidity,
etc., is installed.

the sensor:
●Do not disassemble the sensor
●Do not spray the glass cleaner on the
sensor or subject it to strong impacts

2825-3. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the air-
flow is given to the front seats, reducing
the airflow and air conditioning effect
on the rear seats.
The following S-FLOW modes are
available:
Automatic S-FLOW mode
When a rear passenger is determined
to be in the vehicle, S-FLOW mode will
be automatically disabled.
The indicator will illuminate on the air con-
ditioning control screen when S-FLOW
mode is enabled.
To enable/disable S-FLOW mode and
enter manual S-FLOW mode, select the S-
FLOW mode switch ( P.280).
Manual S-FLOW mode
When the S-FLOW mode switch is
selected, S-FLOW mode will be manu-
ally enabled/disabled.
The indicator will illuminate on the air con-
ditioning control screen when S-FLOW
mode is enabled.
The system does not determine whether a
passenger is in the rear seats by the open-
ing and closing of a rear door, so S-FLOW mode cannot be automatically disabled.
To automatically disable S-FLOW mode by
opening and closing a rear door, switch to
automatic S-FLOW mode.
■S-FLOW air conditioning control
Operation of S-FLOW mode changes
according to the following conditions.
However, depending on the set tem-
perature and air conditioning load is
high, the operation may not change.
 Driver seat priority:
• When the system determines there is no
passenger in the front passenger seat in
manual S-FLOW mode
• When the system determines there are no passengers in the front passenger
seat and rear seats in automatic S-
FLOW mode
The airflow to the front passenger seat and
rear seat stops and the front passenger
temperature display turns off.
 Front seat priority:
When the system determines there are no
passengers in the rear seats
S-FLOW disabled:
When the system determines there is a
passenger in the rear seats
■Passenger presence determination in S-
FLOW mode
The system determines that there is a pas-
senger in any of the following situations.
If a passenger is judged to be in the vehicle,
the system will retain the judgment for a
certain amount of time after the power
switch is turned off.
