●In order to reduce the air conditioning
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
default mode when the engine switch
is turned to IGNITION

●It is possible to switch to outside air mode
at any time by pressing the outside/recir-
culated air mode switch.
■Fogging up of the windows
The windows will easily fog up when the
humidity in the vehicle is high. Turning “A/C”
on will dehumidify the air from the outlets
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 recircu-
lated air mode is used.
■When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by the
vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle after
closing the windows, it is recommended
that the air intake mode be set to outside air
mode and the fan speed to any setting
except off.

■To prevent the windshield from fog-
ging up
Do not use the windshield defogger

the outer surface of the windshield to fog
up, blocking your vision.

defoggers are operating
Do not touch the outside rear view mir-
ror surfaces, as they can become very
hot and burn you.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system
on longer than necessary when the
engine is off.
■When repairing/replacing parts of
the air conditioning system
Have repair/replace ment performed by
your Lexus dealer. When a part of the air
conditioning system, such as the evapo-
rator, is to be re placed, it must be
replaced with a new one.
