SWITCH
Vehicles with navigation system
Vehicles without navigation system
To turn the electric rear window defogger on, push the
switch.
The ignition key must be in the ONº position.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the rear window will
quickly clear the surface. An indicator light will illuminate to
indicate the defogger is operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 15 minutes.
If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate the
switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the switch
once again to turn the defogger off. Continuous use may cause
the battery to discharge, especially during stop-and-go
driving. The defogger is not designed to dry rain water or to

OUTSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
DEFOGGER SWITCH
To turn the electric outside rear view mirror defogger on,
push the switch.
The ignition key must be in the ONº position.
The thin heater wires on the heater panels in the outside rear
view mirrors will quickly clear the surface. Keep your hands off
the mirror faces when the switch is on. An indicator light will
illuminate to indicate the defogger is operating.
The system will automatically shut off when the defogger has
operated about 5 minutes.
CAUTION
Since the mirror surfaces can get hot, do not touch them
when the switch is on.
If further defrosting or defogging is desired, simply actuate the
switch again. When the surface has cleared, push the switch
once again to turn the defogger off. Continuous use may cause
the battery to discharge, especially during stop-and-go
driving. The defogger is not designed to dry rain water or to
melt snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavily coated with ice, use
a spray de-icer before operating the switch.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, turn the
switch off when the engine is not running.
AIR CONDITIONING
221 If quick heating or cooling is desired Ð
Push the TEMPº or PASSENGER TEMPº button on either
side and hold it until MAX. HOTº or MAX. COLDº appears on
the display.
If manual fan speed control is desired Ð
1Fan speed at low2Fan speed at high
The fan speed can be set to your desired speed by pushing the
appropriate side of fan speed control button. The higher the fan
speed is, the more air is delivered. Pushing the OFFº button
turns off the fan.
To remove exterior windshield frost, use the high speed setting.If manual switching of air intake is desired Ð
Each time you push the air intake control button, the mode
changes in order from the RECIRCULATED AIR mode to
OUTSIDE AIR mode, then back to the RECIRCULATED AIR
mode. Each indicator light shows which mode is now selected.
1RECIRCULATED AIR mode Ð If quick circulation of
cooled air is desired, select this mode.
2OUTSIDE AIR mode Ð The system will take fresh
outside air into the vehicle.
To prevent fogging up of the windshield, the air intake mode
may change automatically to the OUTSIDE AIR mode
depending on the condition of the air conditioning system.
For example, when the ambient temperature is low, the air
intake mode may change automatically to the OUTSIDE AIR
mode. This is not a malfunction.
AIR CONDITIONING
222If quick circulation of cooled air is desired, push the air intake
control button for RECIRCULATED AIR. The indicator light will
come on.
For normal use, it is best to keep the air intake control button
set to the OUTSIDE AIR mode. If recirculated air is used during
heating, the windows will fog up more easily.
If manual on-off of the air conditioning is desired Ð
Push the A/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 0C (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 A/Cº button will blink. If the indicator of the
A/Cº button blinks even when the A/Cº button is pushed
again, have the compressor checked by your nearest Lexus
dealer.
(b) Windshield defogging and defrosting
To remove interior fog on the windshield Ð
Push the windshield air flow button.
To remove frost or exterior fog on the windshield Ð
1. Push the TEMPº button to set the maximum temperature.
2. Push the windshield air flow button.
3. Push the fan speed control button on the right side to obtain
a maximum air flow.
4. Leave the A/Cº button off.
When the windshield air flow button is pushed, air flows mainly
from the windshield vents and turns on the defogging function
with the purpose of clearing the front view.
Pushing this button once again returns the air flow mode to the
last one used.
