●The driver is not wearing the seat belt.
If any of the conditions above are detected when the brake hold system is enabled,
the system will turn off and the brake hold standby indicator light will go off. In addi-
tion, if any of the conditions are detected while the system is holding the brake, a
warning buzzer will sound and a message will be shown on the multi-information dis-
play. The parking brake will then be set automatically.
■Brake hold function
●If the brake pedal is left released for a period of about 3 minutes after the system
has started holding the brake, the parking brake will be set automatically. In this
case, a warning buzzer sounds and a message is shown on the multi-information
display.
●To turn the system off while the system is holding the brake, firmly depress the
brake pedal and press the button again.

■Registering air conditioning settings to electronic keys
●Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic key and turning the power switch to ON
mode will recall that key’s registered air conditioning settings.
●When the power 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 access system with push-button start is used to unlock a passenger
door.
Settings for the electronic key and the corresponding door can be changed. Contact
your Lexus dealer.

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

tively.

●The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
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:

Vehicle specifications
■Vehicle customization
●When the speed linked door locking function and shift position linked door locking
function are both on, the door lock operates as follows.
• When shifting the shift lever to any position other than P, all the doors will belocked.
• If the vehicle is started with all the doors locked, the speed linked door locking function would not operate.
• If the vehicle is started with any door unlocked, the speed linked door locking function will operate.
●When the smart access system with push-button start is off, the selecting door to
unlock cannot be customized.
●When the doors remain closed after unlocking the doors and the automatic door
lock function (time elapsed before the automatic door lock function is activated if a
door is not opened after being unlocked) activates, the signals will be generated in
accordance with the operation signal (buzzers) and the operation signal (emer-
gency flashers) settings.
■When customizing using the Remote Touch
Stop the vehicle in a safe place, apply the parking brake, and shift the shift lever to P.
Also, to prevent 12-volt battery discharge, leave the hybrid system operating while
customizing the features.
CAUTION
■During customization
As the hybrid system needs to be operating during customization, ensure that the
vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a
garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and
enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
■During customization
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge, ensure that the hybrid system is operating
while customizing features.
