■Registering air conditioning settings to electronic keys
●Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic key and turning the engine switch to
IGNITION ON mode will recall that key’s registered air conditioning settings.
●When the engine switch is turned off, the current air conditioning settings will auto-
matically be registered to the electronic key that was used to unlock the vehicle.
The system may not operate correctly if more than one electronic key is in the vicinity
or if the smart entry & start system is used to unlock a passenger door.
Settings for the electronic key and the corresponding door can be changed. Contact
any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.

ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow imme-
diately after is pressed.

light.

shield, is provided to detect fog on the front
windscreen. Due to the sensor, when auto-
matic mode is set the air conditioning may
make the following controls:
●Changing the amount of air flow
●Changing the amount of air introduced from

■nanoe *1 system (if equipped)
Your vehicle incorporates a nanoe
™ device, which is considered a biocidal product.
The nanoe™ device generates charged water particles from the ambient air and
these purify the air in the cabin by suppressing bacteria.
The nanoe™ device is considered a biocidal product in the EU according to the
interpretation of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
Active substances: Charged water particles (nano) containing hydroxyl radicals,
generated from ambient air
nanoe™ helps to provide purified air by emitting electrically charged water particles
through the front center vent on the driver’s side

smelled in some situations. However, this is approximately the same as the amount
that already exists in nature, such as in forests, and it has no affect on the human
body.
●A slight noise may be heard during operation. This is not a malfunction.
