3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
CAUTION
■Using the trunk
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in serious
injury.
●Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the trunk lid before opening
it. Failure to do so may cause the trunk lid to fall closed again after it is opened.
●When opening or closing the trunk lid, thoroughly check to make sure the sur-
rounding area is safe.
●If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that the
trunk is about to open or close.
●Use caution when opening or closing the trunk lid in windy weather as it may
move abruptly in strong wind.
●Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Lexus parts to the trunk lid.
Such additional weight on th e trunk lid may cause the lid to fall closed again after
it is opened.
●The trunk lid may fall if it is not opened fully.
It is more difficult to open or close the trunk
lid on an incline than on a level surface, so
beware of the trunk lid unexpectedly open-
ing or closing by itself. Make sure that the
trunk lid is fully open and secure before
using the trunk.
●When closing the trunk lid, take extra care
to prevent your fingers etc. from being
caught.
●When closing the trunk lid, make sure to
press it lightly on it s outer surface. If the
trunk handle is used to fully close the trunk
lid, it may result in hands or arms being
caught.

Operation of each component
CAUTION
■Trunk easy closer (vehicles with power trunk opener and closer)
■Power trunk opener and closer (if equipped)
Observe the following precautions when operating the power trunk opener and
closer.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
●Check the safety of the surrounding area to make sure there are no obstacles or
anything that could cause any of your belongings to get caught.
●If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that the
trunk is about to open or close.
●If the trunk closer switch is pressed while the trunk lid is opening during automatic
operation, the trunk lid stops opening. Take extra care when on an incline, as the
trunk lid may open or close suddenly.
●On an incline, the trunk lid may fall afte r it opens automatically. Make sure the
trunk lid is fully open and secure before using the trunk.
●In the following situations, the power trunk opener and closer may detect an
abnormality and automatic operation may be stopped. In this case, the trunk lid
has to be operated manually. Take extra care in this situation, as the stopped trunk
lid may suddenly fall, causing an accident.
• When the trunk lid contacts an obstacle
• When the 12-volt battery voltage suddenly drops, such as when the “START STOP ENGINE” <“POWER”> switch is turned to IGNITION ON
mode or the engine is started during automatic operation
●Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Lexus parts to the trunk lid. The
power trunk opener and closer may not op erate, causing itself to malfunction, or
the trunk lid may fall closed again after it is opened.
In the event that the trunk lid is left slightly
open, the trunk easy closer will automatically
close it to the fully closed position. It takes
several seconds before the trunk easy closer
begins to operate. Be careful not to catch fin-
gers or anything else in the trunk lid, as this
may cause bone fractures or other serious
injuries.

1573-3. Adjusting the seats
3
Operation of each component
■Auto return function when entering the vehicle
When either of the following actions has been performed, the steering
wheel will move toward the driver and seat will move forward:• The “START STOP ENGINE” <“PO WER”> switch has been turned
to ACCESSORY mode.
• The driver’s seat belt has been fastened.
■When driving position memory is linked with door unlock operation
If the driver’s door is opened, the driver’s seat will move toward the memorized posi-
tion but stop slightly beforehand to allow easy access to the vehicle.
Turning the “START STOP ENGINE” <“POWER”> switch to ACCESSORY or
IGNITION ON mode, or fastening the driver’s seat belt moves the seat fully
into the memorized position.
■Operating the driving position memory after turning the “START STOP ENGINE”
<“POWER”> switch off
Driver’s seat:
Memorized seat positions can be activated up to 180 seconds after the driver’s door
is opened and another 60 seconds after it is closed again. Memorized steering
wheel position can be activated by pressing the “START STOP ENGINE”
<“POWER”> switch.
Front passenger’s seat:
Memorized positions can be activated up to 180 seconds after the front passenger’s
door is opened by pressing button “1”, “2” or “3”.
■Correct seat position
When the seat is in the most forward or most backward position, and the seat is
being moved in those directions, the system may not correctly recognize the current
position and the memorized position will not be correctly recalled.
■The auto away function for exiting the driver’s seat
If the seat is already close to the rearmost position, the auto away function may not
operate when the driver exits the vehicle.
■Customization
The distance that the driver’s seat moves backward during the auto away function
can be changed. (Customizable features: P. 8 5 2 )

1683-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors
ES350 300h_OM_OM33A01U_(U)
■Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The “START STOP ENGINE” <“POWER”> switch is in ACCESSORY or IGNI-
TION ON mode.
■Linked mirror function when reversing
●When either “L” or “R” of the mirror select switch is selected, the outside rear view
mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing in order
to give a better view of the ground. To di sable this function, select neither “L” nor
“R”.
●If the mirror angle adjustment switch is operated while the linked mirror function is
in operation, the angle and position of the mirrors can be remembered, and the
mirrors will operate at the angl e adjusted to the last time the linked mirror function
was operated.
However, because the mirrors move based on the angle they are in when the linked
mirror function is not operating, the mirror angle when the linked mirror function is
operating will also be changed if the mirrors are adjusted while the function is not
operating.
■When the mirrors are fogged up
The outside rear view mirrors can be cleare d using the mirror defoggers. Turn on the
rear window defogger to turn on the outside rear view mirror defoggers. ( P. 3 7 2 )
■Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recalled automatically
by the driving position memory. ( P. 1 5 3 )
■Auto anti-glare function
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the outside
rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view mir-
ror to reduce reflected light. ( P. 1 6 5 )

1713-5. Opening, closing the windows and moon roof
3
Operation of each component
■The power windows can be operated when
The “START STOP ENGINE” <“POWER”> switch is in IGNITION ON
mode.
■Operating the power windows after turn ing the engine off
The power windows can be operated for approximately 45 seconds even after the
“START STOP ENGINE” <“POWER”> switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or
turned off. They cannot, however, be operated once either front door is opened.
■Jam protection function
If an object becomes caught between th e window and the window frame, window
travel is stopped and the wi ndow is opened slightly.
■When the power window does not close normally
If the jam protection function is operating abnormally and a window cannot be
closed, perform the following operations using the power window switch on the rele-
vant door.
●After stopping the vehicle, the window ca n be closed by holding the power window
switch in the one-touch closing posi tion while the “START STOP ENGINE”
<“POWER”> switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
●If the window still cannot be closed even by carrying out the operation as explained
above, initialize the function by performing the following procedure.
Hold the power window switch in th e one-touch closing position. Continue
holding the switch for a further 6 seconds after the window has closed.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch opening position. Continue
holding the switch for a further 2 seco nds after the window has opened com-
pletely.
Hold the power window switch in the one-touch closing position once again.
Continue holding the switch for a further 2 seconds after the window has
closed.
If you release the switch while the window is moving, start again from the beginning.
If the window continues to close but then re-open slightly even after performing the
above procedure correctly, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
