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 a pas-
senger door.
●
The doors that can recall the air condi-
tioning setting
*
when unlocked using the
smart access system with push-button
start can be changed. For details, contact
218
5-2. Using the air conditioning system
your Lexus dealer.
*
: The doors that can recall the driving
position memory are changed at the
same time.
■
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
is pressed or “AUTO” is
selected.
■
Using the voice command system
Air conditioning system can be operated
using voice commands. For details, refer to
the “NAVIGATION AND MULTIMEDIA
SYSTEM OWNER’S MANUAL”.
■
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 win-
dows 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.
■
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 auto-
matically switch depending on the tem-
perature setting or the inside
temperature.
■
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
.
■
Automatic mode for air intake control
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.
■
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:
●
Adjust the fan speed
●
Turn off Eco drive mode
■
When the outside temperature falls to
nearly 32°F (0°C)
The dehumidification function may not
operate even when
is pressed or
“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 sys-
tem. This may then cause odor to be
emitted from the vents.
●
To reduce potential odors from occur-
ring:
• It is recommended that the air condition-
ing system be set to outside air mode
prior to turning the vehicle off.
• 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.

WARNING
■
To prevent the windshield from fog-
ging up
●
Do not use
during cool air
operation in extremely humid weather.
The difference between the tempera-
ture of the outside air and that of the
windshield can cause the outer surface
of the windshield to fog up, blocking
your vision.
●
Do not place anything on the instru-
ment panel which may cover the air
outlets. Otherwise, air flow may be
obstructed, preventing the windshield
defoggers from defogging.
■
To prevent burns
●
Do not touch the rear view mirror sur-
faces when the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.
●
Do not touch the glass at lower part of
the windshield or to the side of the
front pillars when the windshield wiper
de-icer is on.
