●
cally be registered to the electronic key that was used to unlock the vehicle.

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 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 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 power switch is turned to
●
ON mode.
It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing
●
Fogging up of the windows
■
The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high. Pressing "A/C"
●
button 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 recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing outside 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.
