●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 disappea r, 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 fr ont of the vehicle, such as when driving in
the dark, snow, or fog, or when bright 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 sunlight
reflected from the surface of the sunshade
may cause the temperature of the front cam-
era 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.

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

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

• 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
