seconds and then go out, even if no door is opened.
Foot lights
The foot lights also come on when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position with the selector lever in the “P” position. When
the selector lever is moved out of the “P” position, the foot lights
will be dimmed.*
NOTE:

OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRRORS
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 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 101. 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. (See “Rear window
and outside rear view mirror defogger switch” on page 37.)
CAUTION
 Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so may cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur resulting in death
or serious injuries.
 Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch
them when the rear window and outside rear view
mirror defogger switch is on.

COMFORT ADJUSTMENT
101
INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
Adjust the mirror so that you can just see the rear of your
vehicle in the mirror.
Pushing the “MIRROR” 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. 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.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so may cause the
driver to mishandle the vehicle
and an accident may occur resulting in death or serious
injuries.
An antiglare mirror sensor is located on the back side of
the mirror. In order not to disturb correct functioning of
the mirror, do not touch or cover the sensor with your
finger or a piece of cloth, etc.

THEFT DETERRENT

THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
To deter theft of the vehicle, this system is designed to
sound an alarm if any of the doors, trunk or hood is
forcibly unlocked or the battery terminal is disconnected
and then reconnected while the vehicle is locked.
The alarm blows the horn intermittently and flashes the
headlights, tail lights and turn signal lights.
Further more when the interior light switch is in the “DOOR”
position, the interior light turns on.
After the alarm is activated, when you unlock any door using
an ignition key or wireless remote control, the tail lights turn on
for about 2 seconds to inform you that the system was
activated.
Setting the system
1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position and
remove it.
The engine immobiliser system causes the indicator light to
flash.
2. Close and lock all the doors, trunk and hood using an
ignition key or wireless remote control.
If you lock them with wireless remote control, the turn signal
lights flash once.
The flashing indicator light will remain on when all the doors,
trunk and hood are closed and locked.
3. After 30 seconds, the indicator starts flashing and the
system is set.

Activating the system
The alarm sounds for 60 seconds if any of the following are
operated:
Unlocking any door or trunk without using an ignition key or
wireless remote control.
 Opening the hood forcibly.
 Reconnecting the battery.
If any door is unlocked and the ignition key is not in the ignition
switch during the alarm sounding, the door is automatically
locked.
To stop the alarm: Use either of the following methods.
 Unlock the door using an ignition key or wireless remote
control.
 Turn the ignition switch on.
Testing the system
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the system as described above.
The front doors should be locked with the ignition key or
wireless remote control. Be sure to wait until the indicator light
starts flashing.
3. Unlock one of the doors from the inside.

If the system does not work properly, have it checked by your
Lexus dealer.
