HEADLIGHT SWITCH
12E001±1

SWITCHES
36For signaling
turns, move the lever up or down in the
conventional manner.
The ignition key must be in the ªONº position.
The turn signal is self±cancelling after a turn, but after a
lane change, you may have to cancel it by hand. You can
also signal a lane change by moving the turn signal lever
partway and holding it there.
If the green light in the instrument cluster flashes faster
than normal, it indicates that the front or rear turn signal
bulb has burned out. If this indicator light does not come
on, the fuse or the indicator light itself has probably
failed.
FOG LIGHT SWITCH
12E005±1
To turn on the fog lights, turn the switch to the ªONº
position. The fog lights come on only when the
headlights are on low beam.WINDSHIELD WIPER AND WASHER SWITCH

SWITCHES

REAR WINDOW AND OUTSIDEREAR VIEW MIRRORDEFOGGER SWITCH
12E043
To turn the electric rear window and outside rear
view mirror defogger on, push the switch.
The ignition key must be in the ªONº position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window
and the heater panels in the outside rear view mirrors will
quickly clear the surface. An indicator light is on when
the defogger is operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger
has operated about 15 minutes.

COMFORT ADJUSTMENT
126
OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS
16E197
Adjust the mirror so that 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 ªAUTOº
mode, the driver's side outside rear view mirror also
darken to reduce the reflection of the headlights of the
following vehicle. For details, see ªInside rear view
mirrorº on page 130. When you push the rear window and outside rear view
mirror defogger switch, the heater panels in the outside
rear view mirrors will quickly clear the mirror surface.

AIR CONDITIONING
222The air intake control button is used to switch the air
intake between the OUTSIDE AIR mode and
RECIRCULATED AIR mode.
With the button in the OUTSIDE AIR mode, the
OUTSIDE AIR mode indicator light will come on and the
system will take fresh outside air into the vehicle.
If quick circulation of cooled air is desired, push the air
intake control button for RECIRCULATED AIR. The
RECIRCULATED AIR mode indicator light w
ill come on.
For normal use, it is best to keep the air intake control
button set to OUTSIDE AIR mode. If recirculated air is
used during heating, the windows will fog up more easily.
When the air conditioning is ON, if the engine coolant
temperature becomes extremely high, the
RECIRCULATED AIR mode is automatically selected.
This is not a malfunction. When the engine coolant
temperature is lowered, the previous mode resumes.
If manual on±off of the air conditioning is desired ±
Push the ªA/Cº button to turn the air conditioning on and
push it again to turn the air conditioning off.
The air conditioning does not work if the outside
temperature is lowered down to around 0 C (32F).
If the system is used for ventilation, heating in dry
weather or removing frost or exterior fog on the
windshield, turn the air conditioning off once it is no
longer required. This will improve fuel economy. The air
conditioning can be used for year±round automatic temperature
control including cooling and dehumidifying
operation.
If the air conditioning compressor does not operate, the
indicator of the ªA/Cº button will blink. If the indicator of
the ªA/Cº button blinks even when the ªA/Cº button is
pushed again, have the compressor checked by your
nearest Lexus dealer.
Displaying the outside temperature ±
When you push the ªOUTSIDE TEMPº knob, the
temperature display shows the outside temperature. To
return to the display of the current set temperature, push
the knob again. The temperature display ranges from
±30 C (±22 F) up to 50C (122F).
