●
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.
■
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.
■
Registering air conditioning settings to
electronic keys
●
Unlocking the vehicle using an electronic
key and turning the power switch to ON
mode will recall that key’s registered air
conditioning settings.
●
When the power 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 entry & start system
is used to unlock a passenger door.
●
The doors that can recall the air condi-
tioning setting
*
when unlocked using the
smart entry & start system can be
changed. For details, contact your Lexus
dealer.
*
: The doors that can recall the driving
position 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 (if
equipped) (

P.410)
●
Adjust the fan speed
●
Turn off Eco drive mode (

P.380)
■
When the outside temperature falls to
nearly 0°C (32°F)
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 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 or pollen
removal mode.
