Lexus IS 300 2005 User Manual

Introduction

Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual
stored in your vehicle at all times.

The Lexus Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle accessories ever developed. The system receives satellite
signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U. S. Department of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle sen­sors, the system can show you where you are and assist you in locating a desired destination.

The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. The system is designed
to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. The system uses the maps of DENSO based on NA VTEQ maps,
GDT maps and infoUSA POIs. The calculated routes are neither the shortest routes nor routes without traffic congestion. Your own personal
local knowledge or ”short cut” may at times be faster than the calculated routes.

The navigation system’s database includes about 50 point of interest categories to allow you to easily select destinations such as restaurants
and hotels. If a destination is not in the database, you can enter the street address or a major intersection close to it and the system will route
you there. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio instructions will announce the distance and direction
to go when you are approaching a fork or intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your eyes on the road and are timed to
provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.

Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limitations that may affect their ability to perform properly.
The accuracy of the vehicle’s position depends on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circumstan­ces. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to pages 49 through 50.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT

YOUR LEXUS

Occupant restraint systems

Lexus encourages you and your family to take the time to read
Section 1–6 of this Owner’s Manual carefully. In terms of
helping you understand how you can receive the maximum
benefit of the occupant restraint systems this vehicle provides,
Section 1–6 of this Owner’s Manual is the most important
section for you and your family to read.

Section 1–6 describes the function and operation concerning
seats, seat belts, SRS airbags and child restraint systems of
this vehicle and some potential hazards you should be aware
of. These systems work together along with the overall
structure of this vehicle in order to provide occupant restraint
in the event of a crash. The effect of each system is enhanced
when it is used properly and together with other systems. No
single occupant restraint system can, by itself, provide you or
your family with the equal level of restraint which these
systems can provide when used together. That is why it is
important for you and your family to understand the purpose
and proper use of each of these systems and how they relate
to each other.

The purpose of all occupant restraint systems is to help reduce
the possibility of death or serious injury in the event of a
collision. None of these systems, either individually or
together, can ensure that there is no injury in the event of
collision. However, the more you know about these systems
and how to use them properly, the greater your chances
become of surviving an accident without death or serious
injury.

Seat belts provide the primary restraint to all occupants of the
vehicle, and every occupant of the vehicle should wear seat
belts properly at all times. Children should always be secured
in child restraint systems that are appropriate for their age and
size. SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbags are, as
their names i m p l y, designed to work with, and be supplemental
to, seat belts and are not substitutes for them. SRS airbags can
be very effective in reducing the risk of head and chest injuries
by preventing contact of the head and chest with interior
portions of the vehicle.

In order to be effective, the SRS airbags must deploy with
tremendous speed. The rapid deployment of the SRS airbags
makes the SRS airbags themselves potential sources of
serious injury if an occupant is too close to an airbag, or if an
object or s o m e p a r t o f his or her body has been placed between
the occupant and the airbag at the time of deployment. This is
just one example of how the instructions in Section 1–6 of this
Owner’s Manual will help ensure proper use of the occupant
restraint systems, and increase the safety they can provide to
you and your family in the event of an accident.

Lexus recommends you to read the provisions in Section 1–6
carefully and refer to them as needed during your time of
ownership of this vehicle.

Event data recorder

Your vehicle has computers that monitor and control certain
aspects of your vehicle. These computers assist in driving and
maintaining optimal vehicle performance. Besides storing data
useful for troubleshooting, there is a system to record data in
a crash or a near car crash event. This is called an Event Data
Recorder (EDR).

The SRS airbag sensor assembly contains the EDR. In a crash
or a near car crash event, this device records some or all of the
following information:

 Engine speed
 Whether the brake pedal was applied or not
 Vehicle speed
 To what extent the accelerator pedal was depressed
 Position of the transmission selector lever
 Whether the driver and front passenger wore the seat belts

or not

 Driver’s seat position
 Front passenger’s occupant classification
 SRS airbag deployment data
 SRS airbag system diagnostic data

The information above is intended to be used for the purpose
of improving vehicle safety performance. Unlike general data
recorders, the EDR does not record sound data such as
conversation between passengers.

Lexus will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third
party except when:

 An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the leasing

company for a leased vehicle) is obtained

 Officially requested by the police or other authorities
 Used as a defense for Lexus in a law suit
 Ordered by the court

However, if necessary Lexus will:
 Use the data for research on Lexus vehicle safety

performance

 Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes

without disclosing details of the vehicle owner, and only

when it is deemed necessary

 Disclose summarized data cleared of vehicle identification

information to a non–Lexus organization for research

purposes

with the airbags and seat belt pretensioners left as they are,
this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the
systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner removed
and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Lexus
dealer before you scrap your vehicle.

Safety Introduction

SSNU001

T o use your system as safely as possible, fol­low all the safety tips shown below.

This system is intended to assist you in
reaching your destination and, if used prop­erly , c an d o s o . You, as th e drive r, are solely
responsible for the safe operation of your ve­hicle and the safety of your passengers.

Do not use any feature of this system to the
extent it distracts you from safe driving. Your
first priority while you are driving should al­ways be the safe operation of your vehicle.
While you are driving, be sure to observe all
traffic regulations.

Before attempting to use this system while
you are driving, learn how to use it and be­come thoroughly familiar with it. Read the
entire ”Navigation System Owner’s Manual”
to make sure you understand the system.
Do not allow others to use this system until
they have read and understood these and
other instructions in this manual.

For your safety, some functions may become
inoperable when you start driving. Unavail­able switches are dimmed. You can input
your destination and select your route only
when the vehicle is not moving.

CAUTION

 For safety, the driver should not

operate the navigation system while
he/she is driving. Inattention to the
road and traffic may cause an
accident.

 While you are driving, be sure to

follow the traffic regulations and
keep the road condition in mind. If a
traffic sign on the road has been
changed, route guidance may
provide wrong information such as
the direction of a one way street.

While you are driving, listen to the voice in­structions as much as possible and glance at
the screen briefly and only when it is safe.
However, do not totally rely on voice guid­ance. Use it just for your information. If the
system cannot determine your current posi­tion correctly, there is a possibility of incor­rect, late or non–voice guidance.

The data in the system may occasionally be
incomplete. Road conditions, including driv­ing restrictions (no left turns, street closures,
etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before
you follow any instruction from the system,
look to see whether you can comply with the
instruction safely and legally.

This system cannot warn you about such
things as the safety of an area, condition of
streets, and availability of emergency ser­vices. If you are unsure about the safety of
an area, don’t drive into it. Under no circum-

stances is this system a substitute for the
driver’s personal judgement.

Use this system only in locations where it is
legal to do so. Some countries/provinces
may have laws prohibiting video screens
within sight of the driver.

Limitations of the Navigation System

This navigation system calculates the
current vehicle position using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, an accurate position
may not be shown depending on the sat­ellite condition, road configuration, ve­hicle condition or other circumstances.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) devel­oped and operated by the U.S. Department
of Defense provides an accurate current ve­hicle position using 3 to 4 satellites. The GPS
system has a certain level of inaccuracy built
in for security reasons. While the navigation
system will compensate for this most of the
time, occasional positioning errors of up to
300 feet can and should be expected. Gen­erally, position errors will be corrected within
a few seconds.

SSNU251

When your vehicle is not receiving signals
from the satellites, the ”GPS” mark does not
appear at the screen.

The GPS signal may be physically ob­structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle posi­tion on the map display. Tunnels, tall build­ings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may obstruct
the GPS signals.

The installation of window tinting may also
obstruct the GPS signals. Most window tint­ing contains some metallic content that will
interfere with GPS signal reception. We rec­ommend not to use the window tinting on ve­hicles equipped with navigation systems.

The GPS satellites may not send signals due
to repairs or improvements being made to
them.

Even when the navigation system is receiv­ing good GPS signals, the vehicle position
may not be shown accurately or inappropri­ate route guidance may occur in some
cases.

(a) Accurate current vehicle
position may not be shown in
the following cases:

 When driving on a small angled Y–

shaped road.

 When driving on a spiral road.
 When driving on a slippery road such as

in sand, gravel, snow, etc.

 When driving on a long straight road.
 When freeway and surface streets run in

parallel.

 After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.
 When a long route is searched during high

speed driving.

 When driving without setting the current

position calibration correctly.

 After repeating a change of directions by

going forward and backward, or turning
on a turntable in the parking lot.

 When leaving a covered parking lot or

parking garage.

 When a roof carrier is installed.
 When driving with the tire chains installed.
 When the tires are worn.
 After replacing a tire or tires.

49

04 07.13

Limitations of the Navigation SystemLimitations of the Navigation System

 When using tires that are smaller or larger

than the factory specifications.

 When the tire pressure in any of the four

tires is not correct.

INFORMATION

If your vehicle cannot receive GPS sig­nals, you can correct the current posi­tion manually. For the information on
setting the current position calibration,
see page 77.

50

(b) Inappropriate route guidance
may occur in the following
cases:

 When turning at a wrong intersection off

the designated route guidance.

 If you are heading for a destination without

passing through a set preferred road, au­tomatic rerouting may display a route re­turning to the set preferred road.

 When turning at an intersection for which

there is no route guidance.

 When passing through an intersection for

which there is no route guidance.

 During automatic rerouting, the route

guidance may not be available for the next
turn to the right or left.

 It may take a long time to operate auto-

matic rerouting during high speed driving.
In automatic rerouting, a detour route may
be shown.

 During automatic rerouting, the route may

not be changed.

 The route in a U–turn may be shown or an-

nounced.

 A location may have multiple names and

the system will announce one or more.

 Some routes may not be searched.

 If the route to your destination includes

gravel, unpaved roads or alleys, the route
guidance may not be shown.

 Your destination point might be shown on

the opposite side of the street.

 When a portion of the route has regula-

tions prohibiting the entry of the vehicle
that vary by time or season or other rea­sons.

 The road and map data stored in your

navigation system may not be complete
or may not be the latest release.

After replacing the tire, implement the op­eration described in the ”Current Position
Calibration”. (For details, see page 77.)

This navigation system uses tire turning data
and is designed to work with factory–speci­fied tires for your Lexus. Installing tires that
are larger or smaller than the originally
equipped diameter may cause inaccurate
display of the vehicle’s position. The tire
pressure also affects the diameter of the tires
so please make sure the tire pressure of all
four tires is correct.

There are two types of areas available for
route guidance. (See the following
pages.) In one type of area, primarily
around metropolitan centers, detailed
route guidance is available for the entire
area. In the other type of area, all roads
are displayed on the map but route guid­ance is limited. The navigation route
might lack precision because the data (no
right turns, one–way traffic, etc.) is not
completed. It i s still possible to reach the
destination by following the arrow direc­tion and distance as shown on the bottom
left of t h e s c r een. The arrow points in the
direction of the destination. The distance
shown is as measured in a straight line
from the current vehicle position to the
destination area.

In order to provide you with accurate map in­formation as much as possible, we are al­ways gathering information such as on road
repairs and carrying out on–site investiga­tions. However , the names of roads, streets,
facilities, and their locations are often
changed. In some places, construction on
roads may be in progress. For that reason,
information on some areas in this system
might be different from the actual location.

The map database is normally updated once
a year. Contact your Lexus dealer for infor­mation about the availability and pricing of an
update.

Master keys (black) – These keys work in every lock.
For your Lexus dealer to make you a new key with a
built–in transponder chip, your dealer will need an
original key to program the new one.

2

Valet key (gray) – The sub key will not open the trunk
and the glove box.

3

Key number plate – Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.

A transponder chip for engine immobilizer system has been
placed in the head of the master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function correctly, so be careful
not to lose these keys. If you make your own duplicate key, you
will not be able to cancel the system or start the engine.

To protect items locked in the trunk or glove box when using
valet parking, leave the valet key with the attendant.

Since the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key , you
should always carry a spare master key in case you
accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.

If you should lose your keys or if you need additional keys,
duplicates can be made by a Lexus dealer using the key
number.

We recommend writing down the key number and storing it in
a safe place.
