■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.
■Using automatic mode
●Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and the
ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow imme-
diately after is pressed.
●Cool air may blow around the upper body even when the heater is on due to sun-
light.
■Humidity sensor
A sensor, which detects humidity inside the
vehicle and the temperature of the wind-
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
outside when in outside air mode with the air
vents in the position
●Changing the settings of the air vents to
when the is set

■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
*2.
●When the fan is turned on and “nanoe” on the option control screen is selected, the
nanoe system is activated.
●When the fan is operated in the following conditions, system performance will be
maximized. If the following conditions are not met, performance will be limited.
• The , or air outlets are being used.
• The front center vent on driver’s side is open.
●When nanoe is generated, a small amount of ozone is emitted and may be faintly
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.
*1:nanoe and the nanoe mark are trademarks of Panasonic Corporation.
*2: According to temperature and humidity conditions, fan speed and direction of
the air flow, the nanoe system may not operate at full capacity.
