Listening to the radio
Push these buttons to choose either an
AM or FM station.
“AM”, “FM1” or “FM2” appears on the
screen.
If your vehicle is equipped with a satellite
radio broadcast system, when you push
the “AM·SAT” button, “AM”, “SAT1”,
“SAT2”, “SAT3” station appears on the dis-
play. For details about satellite radio
broadcast, see “— Radio operation (XM

Turn the knob clockwise to step up the
station band or counterclockwise to
step down.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the screen. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces
the amount of channel separation to pre-
vent the weak signal from creating noise.
If the signal becomes extremely weak, the
radio switches from stereo to mono recep-
tion. In this case, “ST” disappears from the
screen.

FM
Fading and drifting stations— General-
ly, the effective range of FM is about 40 km
(25 miles). Once outside this range, you
may notice fading and drifting, which in-
crease with the distance from the radio
transmitter. They are often accompanied
by distortion.
Multi− path— FM signals are reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time. If this hap-
pens, the signals will cancel each other
out, causing a momentary flutter or loss of
reception.
Static and fluttering — These occur
when signals are blocked by buildings,
trees, or other large objects. Increasing
the bass level may reduce static and flut-
tering.
Station swapping — If the FM signal you
are listening to is interrupted or weakened,
and there is another strong station nearby
on the FM band, your radio may tune in the
second station until the original signal can
be picked up again.
AM
Fading — AM broadcasts are reflected by
the upper atmosphere — especially at
night. These reflected signals can inter-
fere with those received directly from the
radio station, causing the radio station to
sound alternately strong and weak.
Station interference — When a reflected
signal and a signal received directly from
a radio station are very nearly the same
frequency, they can interfere with each
other, making it difficult to hear the broad-
cast.
Static — AM is easily affected by external
sources of electrical noise, such as high
tension power lines, lightening, or electri-
cal motors. This results in static. MP3/WMA files
DMP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3) and WMA
(Windows Media Audio) are audio
compression standards.
DThe MP3/WMA player can play MP3
and WMA files on CD
−ROM, CD −R
and CD −RW discs.
The unit can play disc recordings com-
patible with ISO 9660 level 1 and level
2 and with the Romeo and Joliet file
system.
DWhen naming an MP3 or WMA file, add
the appropriate file extension (.mp3 or
.wma).
DThe MP3/WMA player plays back files
with .mp3 or .wma file extensions as
MP3 or WMA files. To prevent noise
and playback errors, use the appropri-
ate file extensions.
DThe player can play only the first ses-
sion using multi −session compatible
CDs.
DMP3 files are compatible with the ID3
Tag Ver. 1.0, Ver. 1.1, Ver. 2.2, and Ver.
2.3 formats. The unit cannot display
disc title, track title and artist name in
other formats.
DWMA files can contain a WMA tag that
is used in the same way as an ID3 tag.
WMA tags carry information such as
track title, artist name.
DThe emphasis function is available
only when playing MP3/WMA files re-
corded at 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. (The
system can play MP3 files with sam-
pling frequencies of 16, 22.05, and 24
kHz. However, the emphasis function
is not available for files recorded at
these frequencies.)

(b) Windshield defogging and defrost-
ing
To remove interior fog on the wind-
shield —
Push the windshield air flow button.To remove frost or exterior fog on the
windshield—
1. Push the “TEMP” (“
”) button to set
the “HI”.
2. Push the windshield air flow button.
3. Touch fan speed control touch −screen
button on the right side to obtain a maxi-
mum air flow.

mode, the air conditioning is set to operate.
If you push the windshield air flow button
once again while in the windshield air flow
mode, the mode then returns to the last
mode used.
CAUTION
Do not use the windshield air flow
button during cooled air operation in
extremely humid weather. The differ-
ence between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the windshield
could cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up blocking your vi-
sion.

(e) Outside temperature display
Outside temperature is displayed on
the screen.
The displayed temperature ranges from
−40 _C( −40 _F) up to 50 _C (122 _F).
If the temperature shows “ −−” or “E”, take
your vehicle to your Lexus dealer.
In the following situations, the correct out-
side temperature may not be displayed, or
the display may take longer than normal to
change.
DWhen stopped, or driving at low
speeds (less than 12 mph [20 km/h])
DWhen the outside temperature has
changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit
of a garage, tunnel, etc.) (f) Operating tips
DTo help cool down the interior after
parking in the hot sun, drive for the first
few minutes with the windows open.
After the excess heat has blown away,
close the windows.
DMake sure the air inlet grilles in front of
the windshield are not blocked by
leaves or other obstructions.
DIf air flow control is not satisfactory,
check the dashboard vents and rear
vents. (See “(g) Adjusting the position
of and opening and closing the air out-
lets” on page 266.)
DKeep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
DOn cold days, set the fan speed to high
for a minute to help clear the intake
ducts of snow or moisture. This can re-
duce the amount of fogging on the win-
dows.
DWhen driving on dusty roads, close all
windows. If dust thrown up by the ve-
hicle is still drawn into the vehicle after
closing the windows, it is recom-
mended that the air intake control but-
ton be set to the OUTSIDE AIR mode
to take in the fresh air and set the fan
speed selector to any setting except
OFF.
DIf following another vehicle on a dusty
road, or driving in windy and dusty
conditions, it is recommended that the
air intake control button be temporarily
pressed in to the RECIRCULATED AIR
mode, which will close off the outside
passage and prevent outside air and
dust from entering the vehicle interior.

APPENDIX
305
There are two types of areas available
for route guidance. In one type of area,
primarily around metropolitan centers,
detailed route guidance is available for
the entire area. In the other type of area,
all roads are displayed on the map but
route guidance is limited. The naviga-
tion route might lack precision because
the data (no right turns, one−way traf-
fic, etc.) is not complete. It is still pos-
sible to reach the destination by follow-
ing the arrow direction and distance as
shown on the bottom left of the screen.
The arrow points in the direction of the
destination. The distance shown is as
measured in a straight line from the cur-
rent vehicle position to the destination
area.
In order to provide you with as accurate
map information as possible, we are al-
ways gathering information such as on
road repairs and carrying out on −site in-
vestigations. However, the names of
roads, streets, facilities, and their locations
frequently change. In some places,
construction on roads may be in progress.
For that reason, information on some
areas in this system might be different from
the actual location.
The map database is normally updated
once a year. Contact your Lexus dealer for
information about the availability and pric-
ing of an update. When changing the map DVD
−ROM, we
recommend using your Lexus dealer.
To change the map DVD −ROM yourself,
follow these instructions carefully.
Do not use any tolls other than in −vehicle
tools.
For the storage location of the in −vehicle
tools, refer to the “Owner’s Manual” .
1. Set the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch in ACCESSORY mode.
2. Insert the 2 picks provided in the in−
vehicle tools into the holes on both
sides of the clock panel at a slight out-
ward angle until you hear a “click”.
