ically be registered to the electronic key that was used to unlock the vehicle.
●The system may not operate correctly if more th an one electronic key is in the vicinity or
if the smart access system with push-button start is used to unlock a passenger door.

■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 or “AUTO” is selected.
■How the system judges if a passenger is in the vehicle when in S-FLOW mode
In S-FLOW mode, the system judges if a passenger is in the vehicle as follows:
• Front passenger seat: A passeng er is judged to be in the front passenger seat when the
system detects an object on the front passenger seat, fastening of the front passenger
seat belt, changing of the set temperature for the front passenger seat or the opening
and closing of the front passenger door. (However, when only opening and closing of
the front passenger door is detected, the sy stem will judge that a passenger is not in
the front passenger seat after the vehicl e speed reaches approximately 12 mph (20
km/h) or more.)
• Rear seats (automatic S-FLOW mode only): A passenger is judged to be in a rear seat when the system detects the opening and closin g of a rear door or the operation of the
rear air conditioning system (RX350L).
If a passenger is judged to be in the vehicl e, the system will retain the judgement for a
certain amount of time after th e engine switch is turned off.
■Operation of automatic S-FLOW mode
When the system is operating in automati c S-FLOW mode, if the system detects the
opening and closing of a rear door or the op eration of the rear air conditioning system
(RX350L), S-FLOW mode will be disabled . To enable S-FLOW mode, select on
the option control screen. (I n this case, the system will operate in manual S-FLOW
mode.)
■Changing from manual S-FLOW mode to automatic S-FLOW mode
Select on the option control screen to disable S-FLOW mode.
Turn the engine switch off.
Wait for 60 minutes or more and change the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.

■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressu re warning system will change in accordance with the con-
ditions under which it was init ialized. For this reason, the system may give a warning even
if the tire pressure does not reach a low enough level, or if the pressure is higher than the
pressure that was adjusted to when the system was initialized.
■When initialization of the tire pressure warning system has failed
Initialization may take longer to complete if the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road.
When performing initialization, drive on a pa ved road if possible. Depending on the driv-
ing environment and condition of the tires, initialization will be completed in approxi-
mately 10 to 30 minutes. If initialization is not complete after driving approximately 10 to
30 minutes, continue driving for a while.
If the inflation pressure of each tire is not displayed after driving for approximately 1 hour,
perform the following procedure.
●Park the vehicle in a safe place for approxim ately 20 minutes. Then drive straight (with
occasional left and right turns) at appr oximately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more for
approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
However, in the following situations, the tire inflation pressure will not be recorded and
the system will not operate proper ly. Perform initialization again.
●When operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire pressure warning light
does not blink 3 times.
●After performing initia lization, the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute then
stays on while driving.
If the inflation pressure of each tire is still not displayed, have the vehicle inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
