■When HI mode is selected
The vehicle height will change to N mode when driving at the speeds of 18 mph (30 km/h).
Even if vehicle speed is then reduced to un der 18 mph (30 km/h), height will not return to
HI mode.
■When LO mode is selected
The vehicle height will change to N mode when vehicle speed exceeds 7 mph (12 km/h).
Even if vehicle speed is then reduced to un der 7 mph (12 km/h), height will not return to
LO mode.
■Automatic leveling function
Regardless of the number of occupants and the luggage load, vehicle height in any mode
is always adjusted to a fixed height by the automatic leveling function.
■The rear height control air suspension will not operate in the following cases:
●The underbody of the vehicle is touching the surface of the road.
●The area around the suspension is covered with ice.
■Even if you hear an operating noise
This does not indicate a problem in th e rear height control air suspension.
■Parking and stopping tips
●If you immediately stop the engine after off- road driving, or park the vehicle for a long
time, the vehicle height may gradually lower. When parking, make sure there is nothing
under the vehicle that may come in contact with the underbody. The vehicle will return
to the set height when the engine is started.
●The vehicle height may change as the temperature changes when the engine is
stopped. The vehicle will return to the set height when the engine is started.
■When lowering the vehicle
In order to prevent the vehicle height from rising as occupants leave the vehicle, lowering
control will occur for a short while after the engine has been stopped.
■The rear height control air suspension failure warning
●If a malfunction occurs in the rear height control air suspension, N mode is automati-
cally selected. However, the system may not switch to N mode depending on the loca-
tion of the malfunction.
●The warning message is displayed on the mult i-information display, and the rear height
control air suspension cannot be activated until the malfunction is corrected.
Stop the engine and start it again. If the wa rning message turns off, the system is operat-
ing correctly. If the warning message continues to be displayed, have your vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer as soon as possible.

CAUTION
■The rear height control air suspension must be turned off
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Otherwise, the automatic leveling func-
tion may cause vehicle height to change, an
d you may catch part of your body in the
vehicle, resulting in an accident:
●When jacking up the vehicle, installing tire chains or tying the vehicle with chains/
wires for transportation via flatbed truck, tu rn off the rear height control air suspen-
sion and stop the engine.
●When the vehicle must be towed or disconnect ing a trailer, put the vehicle height in N
mode and turn off the rear he ight control air suspension.
●When the vehicle is stuck, turn off the rear height control air suspension.
■Selecting the correct height mode
●HI mode should only be used when drivin g on rough roads, for example when driving
off-road.
Because the vehicle’s center of gravity will become higher when in the mode, the
vehicle may become unstable when turnin g abruptly, resulting in an accident.
●Do not select HI mode when loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier.
Because the vehicle’s center of gravity will become higher when in the mode, the
vehicle may become unstable when turnin g abruptly, resulting in an accident.
●Before lowering vehicle height, check that there is no one under the vehicle.
NOTICE
■Be careful in any place where overhead space is limited
The vehicle height will rise when a higher mode is selected or cargo is unloaded. This
may cause damage to the vehicle.
■Do not select LO mode when driving on bumpy roads
If the underbody of the vehicle touches a rugged road surface, the vehicle may be
damaged.
■Changing vehicle height
Do not change vehicle height frequently.
The compressor may overhe at and stop operation.
■When on the extremely uneven roads with rocks
Sometimes the vehicle height is not adjusted because it is judged as uneven road driv-
ing.

Interior features
■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 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 access system with push-button start is used to unlock a passenger door.
Settings for the electronic key and th e corresponding door can be changed.
Contact your Lexus dealer.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and the ambi-
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.
■When the outside temperature exceeds 75 °F (24 °C) and the air conditioning system
is on
●In order to reduce the air co nditioning power consumption, the air conditioning system
may switch to recirculated air mode automatically.
This may also reduce fuel consumption.
●Recirculated air mode is selected as a defaul t mode when the engine switch is turned to
IGNITION ON mode.
●It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing or
.
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidi ty in the vehicle is high. Touching “A/C”
on will dehumidify the air from the outl ets and defog the windshield effectively.
●If you turn “A/C” off, the windows may fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
■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 enteri ng the vehicle interior. During cooling operation, setting the
recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may automa tically switch depending on the tempera-
ture setting or the inside temperature.
