General tips for better speech recognition:

Noise may confuse the speech recognition system. You
usually get better performance from the system in quieter
conditions:

The air conditioning/heater fan creates noise. Turn it down
or off for better speech system performance.
 Driving at high speeds creates louder engine noise and wind
noise. You may get better results at lower speeds.
 An open window or an open moon roof results in more noise
in the vehicle. Close all windows for better results.
 Noisy rainstorms can also reduce performance.
 If passengers are talking while you use the speech system,
it may be confused by their speech. You will get better
results if all occupants of the vehicle are quiet while the
system is listening for commands.

Personal calling — the system is only listening for about 5
seconds after it prompts you to speak. If the system does not
hear a response, it will prompt you again, or cancel the
transaction. If you begin to speak too soon, it will tell you
“Slower, please”. Try pausing for a half second before
speaking.

Speak forcefully and clearly. The noisier the environment,
the louder you need to speak. If you are in the driver’s seat,
speak facing the front of the vehicle. If you are a passenger,
speak facing the inside rear view mirror.
 Speak calmly and naturally. The system may sometimes fail
to hear your repeated attempts to give a command. If your
speech is distorted by shouting or frustration, this may
cause more errors.
 People with high− pitched voices may have better results by
speaking in a deeper, lower−pitched voice. However, do not
lower the volume of the voice.
 Avoid speaking with a rising intonation, like asking a
question. Use a flat or falling intonation, like giving an
answer.

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS ORLOCK YOURSELF OUT
You can purchase a new key at your Lexus dealer if you
can give them the key number and master key.
Even if you lose only one key, contact your Lexus dealer to
make a new key. If you lose all your master keys, you cannot
make new keys; the whole engine immobilizer system must be
replaced.
See the suggestion given in “Keys” on page 8.
You can use the wireless remote control system with the new
key. Contact your Lexus dealer for detailed information.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and you cannot get a
duplicate, many Lexus dealers can still open the door for you
using special tools. If you must break a window to get in, we
suggest breaking the smallest side window because it is the
least expensive to replace. Be extremely cautious to avoid
glass cuts.

MAINTENANCE
488
DOES YOUR VEHICLE NEEDREPAIRING?
Be on the alert for changes in performance and sounds, and
visual tip −offs that indicate service is needed. Some important
clues are:
 Engine missing, stumbling, or pinging
 Appreciable loss of power
 Strange engine noises
 A fluid leak under the vehicle (However, water dripping from
the air conditioning after use is normal.)
 Change in exhaust sound (This may indicate a dangerous
carbon monoxide leak. Drive with the windows open and
have the exhaust system checked immediately.)
 Flat−looking tires, excessive tire squeal when cornering,
uneven tire wear
 Vehicle pulls to one side when driving straight on a level
road
 Strange noises related to suspension movement
 Loss of brake effectiveness, spongy feeling brake pedal,
pedal almost touches floors, vehicle pulls to one side when
braking
 Engine coolant temperature continually higher than normal If you notice any of these clues, take your vehicle to your Lexus
dealer as soon as possible. It probably needs adjustment or
repair.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving with the vehicle unchecked. It
could result in serious vehicle damage and possibly
personal injury.
