■Registering air conditioning settings to electronic keys (vehicles with driving position
memory)
●Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic ke y and turning the engine switch to IGNI- TION ON mode will recall that key’s registered air conditioning settings.
●When the engine switch is turned off, the current air conditioning settings will automat- ically 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.
●The doors that can recall the air conditioni ng setting when unlocked using the smart entry & start system can be changed.* For details, contact any authorized Lexus dealer
or repairer, or another duly qu alified and equipped professional.
*: The doors that can recall the driving position memory are changed at the same time.

ent conditions. Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until wa rm or cool air is ready to flow immediately after the “AUTO” button is pressed or “AUTO” is selected.
■Operation of S-FLOW mode
In automatic mode, S-FLOW mode will be turned off if a rear door has been opened and
closed. To activate S-FLOW mode again, press .
■Automatic mode for air intake control (if equipped)
In automatic mode, the system detects exhaust gas and other pollutants and automati-
cally switches between outside air and recirculated air modes.

■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidi ty in the vehicle is high. Selecting “A/C” will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the windshield effectively.

■Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the outside/recircu- lated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing out-
side air from entering the vehicle interior . During cooling operation, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the tempera-
ture setting or the inside temperature.
■When the outside temperature is low
The dehumidification function may not operate even when “A/C” is selected.
■Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode
●In the Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to prioritize fuel efficiency
• Engine speed and compressor operation co ntrolled to restrict heating/cooling capacity• Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations
• Adjust the fan speed
• Turn off Eco drive mode
■Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.
●During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into and accu- mulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to be emitted from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from occurring:
• It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air mode prior
to turning the vehicle off. • The start timing of the blower may be dela yed for a short period of time immediately after the air conditioning system is started in automatic mode.
■When the Heated Windshield Defroster is operating (if equipped)
When the Heated Windshield Defroster is op erating, operation of the heated steering wheel, front passenger seat heater and rear seat heaters will be suspended.

WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
●Do not use during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The differ-
ence between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking your vision.
■To prevent burns
●Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mirror defog-gers are on.
●Do not touch the glass at lower part of the windshield or to the side of the front pillarswhen the windshield wiper de-icer is on. (if equipped)
