■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
.

Maintenance and care
◆Registering ID codes
Every tire pressure warning valve and transmitter has a unique ID code.
When replacing a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, it is necessary
to register the ID code.
When registering the ID codes, perform the following procedure.
Park the vehicle in a safe place, wait for approximately 20 minutes, and
then start the engine. ( P. 200)
Press or of the meter control switches and select .
Press or of the meter control switches and select “Vehicle
Settings”, and then press .
Press or of the meter control switches and select “TPWS”, and
then press .
Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“Change Wheel Set”, and then
press and hold until the tire
pressure warning light starts
slowly blinking 3 times.
Then a message will be displayed on
the multi-information display.
When registration is being performed, the tire pressure warning light will blink for
approximately 1 minute then illuminate and “--” will be displayed for the inflation
pressure of each tire on the multi-information display.
Drive at approximately 25 mph (40 km /h) or more for approximately 10 to
30 minutes.
Registration is complete when the tire pressure warning light turns off and the
inflation pressure of each tire is displayed on the multi-information display.
Even if the vehicle is not driven at approxim ately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more, reg-
istration can be completed by driving for a long time. However, if registration does
not complete after driving for 1 hour or more, perform the procedure again from
the beginning.
Initialize the tire pressure warning system. ( P. 474)

Maintenance and care
■The initialization operation
●Make sure to carry out initialization after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before carryi ng out initialization or tire inflation pres-
sure adjustment.
●If you have accidentally turned the engine swit ch off during initialization, it is not neces-
sary to manually restart the in itialization again, as initialization will restart automatically
the next time the engine switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
●If you accidentally perform initialization when initialization is not necessary, adjust the
tire inflation pressure to the specified leve l when the tires are cold, and conduct initial-
ization again.
●While the position of each tire is being de termined and the inflation pressures are not
being displayed on the multi-info rmation display, if the inflation pressure of a tire drops,
the tire pressure warning light will come on.
■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
●Do not move the vehicle backward during in itialization. Initialization is started again
from the beginning and it ma y take longer than usual.
●Initialization may take longer to complete if the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road.
When performing initialization, drive on a paved road if possible. Depending on the
driving environment and cond ition of the tires, initialization will be completed in
approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
• If initialization is not comp lete after driving approximately 30 minutes, continue
driving for a while.
• If initialization is not complete after driv ing approximately 1 hour, park the vehicle in
a safe place for approximately 20 minutes. Then drive straight (with occasional left
and right turns) at approximat ely 25 mph (40 km/h) or more
* for approximately 10
to 30 minutes.
If initialization is still not complete, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
*: Except when making a left/right turn
●In the following situations, th e tire inflation pressure will not be recorded and the system
will not operate properly. Perform initialization again.
• If, when attempting to start initialization , the tire pressure warning light does not
blink 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been driven for ab out 20 minutes after performing initializa-
tion, the tire pressure warning light blinks for approximately 1 minute and then illumi-
nates.

■When registering ID codes
●ID code registration is performed while driving at a vehicle speed of approximately 25
mph (40 km/h) or more.
●Before performing ID code registration, make
sure that no wheels with tire pressure
warning valve and transmitters installed are near the vehicle.
●Initialize the tire pressure warning system after ID code registration. Initialization is dis-
abled if the system was init ialized before registration.
●After ID code registration, the tires are hot by driving. Initialize the tire pressure warn-
ing system after the tires become cold.
●ID codes can be registered by yourself, bu t depending on the driving conditions and
driving environment, registration may take some time to complete.
■Canceling the change wheel set mode
●If turning the engine switch off when in th e change wheel set mode before driving, the
change wheel set mode is canceled.
●After driving when in the ch ange wheel set mode, the change wheel set mode cannot
be canceled. To cancel the mode, perform th e procedure for ID code registration again
and turn the engine switch off before driving.
●If the change wheel set mode is canceled, the ID codes that have already been regis-
tered are communicated. When communication is finished, the tire pressure warning
light will turn off.
■When ID code registration has failed
●Registration may take long time or the ID codes may not be registered in the following
situations.
• When the vehicle is moved ba ckward during registration.
Registration is started again from the beginning and it may take longer than usual.
• When another vehicle is running the side of the vehicle such as in heavy traffic. It may take longer to detect the vehicle’s tire pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters.
• If tire pressure warning valves an d transmitters are in the vehicle.
The ID codes may not be registered.
●When performing registration , drive on a paved road if possible. Depending on the
driving environment and conditio n of the tires, registration will be completed in approx-
imately 10 to 30 minutes.
• If registration is not comple te after driving approximately 30 minutes, continue driv-
ing for a while.
• If registration is not complete after driving approximately 1 hour, park the vehicle in a safe place for approximately 20 minutes. Then drive straight (with occasional left
and right turns) at approximat ely 25 mph (40 km/h) or more
* for approximately 10
to 30 minutes.
If registration is still not complete, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
*: Except when making a left/right turn
●When the tire pressure warning light does not blink slowly 3 times, the ID code will not
be registered and the system will not operate properly. Perform registration again.
