Driving
immediately to prevent it from
freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of the
climate control system fan, remove
any snow that has accumulated on
the air inlet vents in front of the
windshield.
 Check for and remove any excess
ice or snow that may have accumu-
lated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s
roof, chassis, around the tires or on
the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud from the
bottom of your shoes before getting
in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a
safe distance between you and the
vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced
speed suitable to road conditions.
 Park the vehicle and move the shift
lever to P without setting the park-
ing brake. The parking brake may
freeze up, preventing it from being
released. If the vehicle is parked
without setting the parking brake,
make sure to block the wheels. Fail-
ure to do so may be dangerous
because it may cause the vehicle to
move unexpectedly, possibly lead-
ing to an accident.
When the parking brake is in automatic
mode, release the parking brake after shift-
ing the shift lever to P. ( P.186)
 If the vehicle is parked without set-
ting the parking brake, confirm that
the shift lever cannot be moved out
of P
*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is
attempted to be shifted from P to any
other position with out depressing the
brake pedal. If the shift lever can be
shifted from P, there may be a problem
with the shift lock system. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Lexus dealer
immediately.

mounting the tire chains.
Chain size is regulated for each tire

Side chain (0.12 in. [3 mm] in diam-
eter)

functions other than th at operated is main-
tained.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically accord-
ing 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 immedi-
ately after the automatic mode switch is
pressed or “AUTO” is selected.
Cool air may blow around the upper body
even when the heater is on due to sunlight.
■Automatic mode for air intake control (if
equipped)
In automatic mode, the system detects
exhaust gas and other pollutants and auto-
matically switches between outside air and
recirculated air modes.
When the dehumidification function is off,
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function.
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the air-
flow is given to the front seats, reducing
the airflow and air co nditioning effect
on the rear seats. When in S-FLOW
mode, airflow from the rear air condi-
tioning system is stopped. (RX350L)
Operation in S-FLOW mode differs
according to the following conditions:
 Priority is given to the driver’s seat
only when:
Manual S-FLOW mode: When no
passenger is judged to be in the
front passenger seat.
Automatic S-FLOW mode: When
no passengers are judged to be in
the front passenger seat or rear
seats.
 Priority is given to the front seats
when: Manual S-FLOW mode is
selected or no passengers are
judged to be in the rear seats when
in automatic S-FLOW mode.
 S-FLOW mode will be disabled
when: A passenger is judged to be
in a rear seat when in automatic
S-FLOW mode.
Depending on the set temperature, opera-
tion in S-FLOW mode may not change as
described above.
When certain conditions are met and pri-
ority is given to the driver’s seat only, the
temperature indicator for the front passen-
ger side will turn off.
How the system judges if a passenger is in
the vehicle: P.305
