Auto tilt away
When the ignition key is removed, the steering column moves
forward away from the driver and also tilts up for easy exit and
entry.
When the key is inserted in the ignition switch, the steering
column returns to the previously set position.
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS
Adjust the mirror so you can just see the side of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Be careful when judging the size or distance of any object seen
in the outside rear view mirror on the passenger’s side. It is a
convex mirror with a curved surface. Any object seen in a
convex mirror will look smaller and farther away than if seen in
a normal flat mirror.
When the inside rear view mirror darkens in “AUTO” mode, the
outside rear view mirrors also darken to reduce the reflection
of the headlights of the following vehicle. For details, see
“Inside rear view mirror” on page 62.

Control switch
To adjust the power rear view mirror, first place the master
switch at “L” (left) or “R” (right), and push the control
switch on the desired side.
If the engine is not running, the key must be in the “ACC”
position for operation of the power rear view mirror.
NOTICE
If ice should jam the mirror, do not operate the control
or scrape the mirror face. Use a spray de−icer to free the
mirror.
Folding rear view mirrors
To fold the rear view mirror, push backward.
The rear view mirrors can be folded backward for parking in
restricted areas.

INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
Pushing the switch changes the mode between “AUTO”
and “DAY”.
The indicator comes on when the “AUTO” mode is selected.
“DAY” mode: The mirror surface is normal.
“AUTO” mode: If the mirror detects light from the
headlights of the vehicle behind you, the mirror surface
darkens slightly to reduce the reflected light.
When the inside rear view mirror surface changes, the outside
rear view mirror surfaces will also become darker.
When the ignition key is inserted and turned on, the inside rear
view mirror always turns on in the “AUTO” mode.
Adjust it before driving so that the rear view is the best.
When the outside air temperature is low, it may take a little
longer for the mirror to darken in response to the detection of
headlights.
SEAT BELTS
Seat belt precautions
Lexus recommends that the driver and passengers in the
vehicle be properly restrained at all times with the seat belts
provided. Failure to do so could increase the chance of injury
and / or the severity of injury in accidents.
Baby or small child. Use a child restraint system which fits
your vehicle. See “Child restraint” for details.
Child. If a child is too large for a child restraint system, the child
should sit in the rear seat and must be restrained using the
vehicle’s seat belts. According to accident statistics, the child
is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the
front seat. Do not allow the child to stand up or kneel both on
rear and front seats. If the shoulder belt falls across the child’s
neck or face, have the child sit slightly closer to the buckle so
that the belt lays across the shoulder.
Pregnant woman. Lexus recommends the use of a seat belt.
Ask your doctor for specific recommendations. The lap belt
should be worn securely and as low as possible over the hips
and not on the waist.
Injured person. Lexus recommends the use of a seat belt.
Depending on the injury, however, first check with your doctor.

DRIVING POSITION MEMORY
SYSTEM
The micro computer can memorize the position of the driver’s
seat, the height of the shoulder belt anchor of the driver’s seat
belt, and the positions of the tilt and telescopic steering, and
outside rear view mirrors. Two different driving position profiles
can be entered into the computer’s memory.
Recording a driving position in the computer’s memory can
only be done when the ignition key is in the “ON” position and
the shift lever is in the “P” position.
Setting a driving position
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, driver’s shoulder belt anchor,
tilt and telescopic steering and outside rear view mirrors
to the desired position.
2. While pushing the “SET” button, push button “1” or “2”
until the signal beeps.
The beep sound means that true positions are recorded in the
computer’s memory.
By repeating these two steps and pressing the remaining
button, the driving position for another driver can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select the desired position
and perform step 2. The previous memory will be erased and
the new position will be set.
To make only slight changes to an already memorized position,
the easiest way is to first activate the memorized position, then
make the desired changes and perform step 2 above.
