Registering air conditioning settings to electronic keys
■
Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic key and turning the engine switch to IGNI-
●
TION 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 the 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 warm or cool air is ready to flow immediately
after is pressed.
Cool air may blow around the upper body even when the heater is on due to sunlight.
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 recirculated air mode is used.
●
Outside/recirculated air mode
■
When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the outside/recircu-
●
lated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing out-
side air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling operation, setting the
recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the tempera-
●
ture setting or the inside temperature.
