■If the Parking Support Brake has oper-
ated

■If “Parking Support Brake Unavailable”
is displayed on the multi-information
display and the PKSB OFF indicator is
flashing
If this message is displayed only when the

sage is displayed when the shift lever is in
any position other than R, a sensor on the
front or rear bumper may be dirty. Clean
the sensors and their surrounding area on
the bumpers.
■If “Parking Support Brake Unavailable”
and “Parking Assist Unavailable Clean
Parking Assist Sensor” are displayed on
the multi-information display and the
PKSB OFF indicator is flashing
●A sensor may be covered with ice, snow,
dirt, etc. In this case, remove the ice,
snow, dirt, etc., from the sensor to return
the system to normal. If this message is
shown even after removing dirt from the
sensor, or shown when the sensor was
not dirty to begin with, have the vehicle
inspected at your Lexus dealer.
●A sensor may be frozen. Once the ice
melts, the system will return to normal.

■Setting the fan speed
Operate the fan speed increase switch
to increase the fan speed and the fan
speed decrease switch to decrease the
fan speed.
Press the off switch to turn the fan off.
■Changing the air flow mode
Press the airflow mode control switch.
The mode changes as follows each
time the switch is pressed. ( P.265)
■Switching between outside air and
recirculated air modes
Press the outside/recirculated air
mode switch.
The mode changes as follows each
time the switch is pressed.
(recirculated air mode) 
automatic mode
*  (outside
air mode)  (recirculated air
mode)
When the system is switched to automatic
mode, the air conditioning system oper-
ates automatically.
*: This item cannot be selected when the air conditioning is off.
■Defogging the windshield
Defoggers are used to defog the wind-
shield and front side windows.
Press the windshield defogger switch.
Set the outside/recirculated air mode
switch to outside air mode if the recircu-
lated air mode is used. (It may switch auto-
matically.)
To defog the windshield and the side win-
dows early, turn the air flow and tempera-
ture up. To return to the previous mode, press the
windshield defogger switch again when the
windshield is defogged.
■Defogging the rear window and
outside rear view mirrors
Defoggers are used to defog the rear
window, and to remove raindrops, dew
and frost from the outside rear view
mirrors.
Press the rear window and outside
rear view mirror defoggers switch.
The defoggers will automatically turn off
after 15 to 60 minutes. The operation time
changes according to the ambient tem-
perature and vehicle speed.
■When the outside temperature exceeds
75°F (24°C) and the air conditioning
system is on
●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 ON mode.
●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

2645-3. Using the air conditioning system
mode and the fan speed to any setting
except off.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●Setting to the recirculated air mode tem-
porarily is recommended in preventing
dirty air from entering the vehicle interior
and helping to cool the vehicle when the
outside air temperature is high.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may
automatically switch regardless of the air
conditioning setting depending on the
temperature setting or inside tempera-
ture.
■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 auto-
matically 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 the
passenger door.
●Vehicles with the driving position mem-
ory: The doors that can recall the air con-
ditioning setting
* when unlocked using
the smart access system with push-but-
ton start can be changed. For details,
contact your Lexus dealer.
*: The doors that can recall the driving posi-
tion memory are changed at the same
time.
■Operation of the air conditioning sys-
tem in Eco drive mode
In Eco drive mode, the air conditioning sys-
tem is controlled as follows to prioritize fuel
efficiency:
●Engine speed and compressor operation
controlled to restrict heating/cooling
capacity
●Fan speed restricted when automatic
mode is selected To improve air conditioning performance,
perform the following operations:
●Turn off eco air conditioning mode
(
 P.266)
●Adjust the fan speed
●Turn off Eco drive mode ( P.213)
■When the outside temperature falls to
nearly 32°F (0°C)
The dehumidification function may not
operate even when “A/C” is selected.
■Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning
system to the outside air mode.
●During use, various odors from inside
and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning
system. This may then cause odor to be
emitted from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from occur-
ring, the start timing of the blower may be
delayed for a short period of time imme-
diately after the air conditioning system is
started in automatic mode.
●When parking, the system automatically
switches to fresh air intake mode to
encourage better air circulation through-
out the vehicle, helping to reduce odors
that occur when starting the vehicle.
