Reverse operation feature: To ensure adequate rear visibility, the rear sunshade auto-

matically lowers when the shift lever is shifted to R.
However, the rear sunshade is raised again if any of the following occurs:
• The button is pressed again.

*

• The shift lever is shifted into P.

• The shift lever is shifted out of R, and the vehicle reaches a speed of 9 mph (15 km/h).

If the engine is off when the rear sunshade has been lowered due to the reverse opera-

tion feature, it will not be raised even when the engine is turned on again and the vehi-

cle reaches a speed of 9 mph (15 km/h). To raise the sunshade again, press the button.

*

: Occasionally, the reverse function may not be carried out after the switch has been

pressed. Repeat the above operation to operate the function.

WARNING

When the rear sunshade is being operated, do not place fingers or other objects in the

fastener section or in the opening. They may get caught, causing injury.

NOTICE

To prevent battery discharge, do not operate the rear sunshade when the engine is

off.

To ensure normal operation of the rear sunshade, observe the following precautions:
• Do not place excessive load on the motor or other components of the rear sun-

shade.

• Do not place objects where they may hinder opening and closing operations.

• Do not attach items to the rear sunshade.

• Keep the opening clean and clear of obstructions.

• Do not operate the rear sunshade continuously for long periods of time.

Before programming HomeLink

®

During programming, it is possible that garage doors, gates, or other
devices may operate. For this reason, make sure that people and objects
are clear of the garage door or other devices to prevent injury or other
potential harm.

It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the remote control
transmitter for more accurate programming.

Garage door opener motors manufactured after 1995 may be equipped
with rolling code protection. If this is the case, you may need a stepladder
or other sturdy, safe device to reach the “Learn” or “Smart” button on the
garage door opener motor.

Garage door opener

The garage door opener can be programmed to operate garage doors, gates,
entry doors, door locks, home lighting systems, security systems, and other
devices.

WARNING

When programming a garage door or other remote control device
The garage door or other device may operate, so ensure people and objects are out of

danger to prevent potential harm.

Conforming to federal safety standards
Do not use the HomeLink

 compatible transceiver with any garage door opener or

device that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by federal safety stan-

dards.

This includes any garage door that cannot detect an interfering object. A door or

device without these features increases the risk of death or serious injury.

When operating or programming HomeLink

The direction display deviates from the true direction determined by the earth’s
magnetic field. The amount of deviation varies according to the geographic posi-
tion of the vehicle.

If you cross over a map boundary shown in illustration, the compass will deviate.

To obtain higher precision or perfect calibration, refer to the following.

Deviation calibration

Stop the vehicle.
Press and hold the button for 6
seconds.

A number (1 to 15) appears on the

compass display.

Press the button and, referring to the map above, select the number of the
zone where you are.

If the direction is displayed several seconds after adjustment, the calibration is

complete.

Circling calibration

Stop the vehicle in a place where it is safe to drive in a circle.
Press and hold the button for 9
seconds.

“C” appears on the compass display.

Drive the vehicle at 5 mph (8
km/h) or less in a circle until a
direction is displayed.

If there is not enough space to drive

in a circle, drive around the block

until a direction is displayed.

Conditions unfavorable to correct operation
The compass may not show the correct direction in the following conditions:

The vehicle is stopped immediately after turning.

The vehicle is on an inclined surface.

The vehicle is in a place where the earth's magnetic field is subject to interference by

artificial magnetic fields (underground car park/parking lot, under a steel tower,

between buildings, roof car park/parking lot, near an intersection, near a large vehicle,

etc.).

The vehicle has become magnetized.

(There is a magnet or metal object near the inside rear view mirror.)

The battery has been disconnected.

A door is open.

WARNING

While driving the vehicle
Do not adjust the display. Adjust the display only when the vehicle is stopped.

When doing the circling calibration
Secure a wide space, and watch out for people and vehicles in the vicinity. Do not vio-

late any local traffic rules while performing circling calibration.

NOTICE

To avoid compass malfunctions
Do not place magnets or any metal objects near the inside rear view mirror. 

Doing this may cause the compass sensor to malfunction.

To ensure normal operation of the compass

Do not perform circling calibration of the compass in a place where the earth's mag-

netic field is subject to interference by artificial magnetic fields.

During calibration, do not operate electric systems (moon roof, power windows, etc.)

as they may interfere with the calibration.

7-1. Maintenance and care

Working from top to bottom, liberally apply water to the vehicle body, wheel
wells and underside of the vehicle to remove any dirt and dust.

Wash the vehicle body using a sponge or soft cloth, such as a chamois.

For hard-to-remove marks, use car wash soap and rinse thoroughly with
water.

Wipe away any water.

Wax the vehicle when the waterproof coating deteriorates.

If water does not bead on a clean surface, apply wax when the vehicle body is cool.

Self-restoring coat
The vehicle body has a self-restoring coating that is resistant to small surface scratches

caused in a car wash etc.

The coating lasts for 5 to 8 years from when the vehicle is delivered from the plant.

The restoration time differs depending on the depth of the scratch and outside tem-

perature.

The restoration time may become shorter when the coating is warmed by applying

warm water.

Deep scratches caused by keys, coins, etc. cannot be restored.

Do not use wax that contain abrasives.

Automatic car washes

Fold the mirrors before washing the vehicle. Start washing from the front of the vehicle.

Make sure to extend the mirrors before driving.

Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface and harm your

vehicle’s paint.

High pressure car washes

Do not allow the nozzles of the car wash to come within close proximity of the windows. 

Before using the car wash, check that the fuel filler door on your vehicle is closed prop-

erly.

Cleaning and protecting the vehicle exterior

Perform the following to protect the vehicle and maintain it in prime condi-
tion:

When using a car wash
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective range, the

door may lock and unlock repeatedly. In that case, follow the following correction proce-

dures to wash the vehicle:

Place the key in a position 6 ft. (2 m) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehi-

cle is being washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)

Set the electronic key to battery-saving mode to disable the smart access system with

push-button start. (

P. 137)

Aluminum wheels

Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent.

Wash detergent off with water immediately after use.

To protect the paint from damage, make sure to observe the following precautions.
• Do not use acidic, alkaline or abrasive detergent

• Do not use hard brushes

• Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, such as after driving or park-

ing in hot weather

Bumpers 
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.

Front side windows water-repellent coating (if equipped)

The following precautions can extend the effectiveness of the water-repellent coating.
• Remove any dirt, etc. from the front side windows regularly.

• Do not allow dirt and dust to accumulate on the windows for a long period.

Clean the windows with a soft, damp cloth as soon as possible.

• Do not use wax or glass cleaners that contain abrasives when cleaning the windows.

• Do not use any metallic objects to remove condensation build up.

When the water-repellent performance has become insufficient, the coating can be

repaired. Contact your Lexus dealer.
