Introduction Safety Instructions
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.
For safety reasons, this manual indicates items requiring particular attention with the following marks.
CAUTION
This is a warning against something which may cause injury to people if the warning is ignored. You are in­formed what you must or must not do in order to avoid or reduce the risk to yourself and other people.
NOTICE
This is a warning against something which may cause damage to the vehicle or its equipment if the warning is ignored. You are informed what you must or must not do in order to avoid or reduce the risk of damage to your Lexus and its equipment.
INFORMATION
This provides additional information.
0001u
To use your system as safely as possible, follow all safety tips shown below.
This system is intended to assist you in reaching your destination and, if used properly, can do so. You, as the driver, 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 driving should always be the safe operation of your vehicle.
Before attempting to use this system while driving, learn how to use it and become thoroughly familiar with it. Read the entire Navigation System Manual to make sure you understand the system. Do not allow others to use this system until they have read and understand these and other instructions in this manual.
You can input your destination and select your route only when the vehicle is not moving. While driving, listen to the voice instructions as much as possible and glance at the screen briefly and only when safe.
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 quality of a neighborhood, 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 circumstances is this sys-
tem a substitute for the driver’s person­al judgement.

Safety Instructions Precautions on use
We recommend that you obtain updated map data as it becomes available in order to help use the system as effectively and safely as possible.
Use this system only in locations where it is legal to do so. Some states/provinces may have laws prohibiting video screens within sight of the driver.
GPS voice navigation system
This navigation system calculates the cur­rent vehicle position using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, map data, etc.
However, the accurate position may not be shown depending on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circumstances.
The GPS (Global Positioning System) de­veloped and operated by the U.S. Depart­ment of Defense provides an accurate cur­rent vehicle position using 3 to 4 satellites.
EMV0001U
When your vehicle is receiving signals from the satellites, the ”GPS” mark ap­pears at the top left of the screen.
The GPS is not available in the follow­ing cases:
Signal obstructions are caused by tun-
nels, tall buildings, trucks, or even the placement of objects on the instrument panel.
The satellites do not send signals due to
the improvement or repair of them.
When driving, be sure to observe traffic regulations.
Route guidance shows a reference route up to the destination surrounding area.
It is neither a shortest route nor a route without a traffic congestion.
Do not totally rely on voice guidance. Use it just for your information.
If the system cannot determine the current position correctly, there is a possibility of incorrect, late or non–voice guidance.
The road and map data stored in your navigation system may not be latest or complete.
When replacing the tire(s), contact your Lexus dealer.

Precautions on use Accurate Operation Tips
This navigation system uses the tire turn­ing data. So, replacing the tire may cause a positioning error.
Make sure tire pressures of 4 wheels should be correct.
For your safety, some functions may become inoperable when you start driv­ing.
Unavailable switches are dimmed.
CAUTION
For safety, the driver should not
operate the navigation system during driving. Incorrect maneuvering of steering wheel may cause an accident.
When driving, be sure to follow
traffic regulations and keep the road condition in mind. If a traffic sign on the road is changed by the regulation, route guidance may provide wrong information such as the route prohibiting the entry of the vehicle.
This navigation system calculates the current vehicle position using satellite signals, various vehicle signals, map data, etc. However, the accurate posi­tion may not be shown or inappropriate route guidance may occur in some cases.
(a) The 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 the freeway and surface streets
run in parallel.
When the long route is searched during
high speed driving.
When approaching a tall building or
large vehicle.
After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.After repeating a change of directions by
going forward and backward, or turning on the turn table in the parking lot.
When going out from the parking lot with
roof.
When driving with the tire chains
installed.
When replacing the tire(s).When using the tire other than specified.When tire pressures of 4 wheels are not
correct.
When driving without setting the current
position calibration correctly.
When the roof carrier is installed.When the tires are worn. (i.e., studless
tires used in the previous season)
INFORMATION
After your vehicle receives signals from the GPS, the current vehicle position, if it is not placed in cor­rect position or on the wrong road, will be corrected automatically.
If your vehicle cannot receive GPS signals, you can correct it manual­ly. For the information on current position calibration, see page 63.

may be shown.
If you are heading for the destination
without passing through a set way point, automatic rerouting may display a route returning to the set way point.
When turning at an intersection, there is
no route guidance.
When passing through the intersection,
there is no route guidance.
The route in a U–turn may be shown or
announced.
The route prohibiting the entry of the ve-
hicle due to the regulation by time or season or any other regulation may be given.

Map Database
Map database is made based on the maps in June, 1998 edi­tion of DENSO, whose information source comes from Nav T ech maps.
INFORMATION
Nav Tech map data includes 2 types of areas: ”Detailed map coverage areas” providing all detailed road data and other areas showing main roads only. The route calcula­tion may not be made on the border of the detailed map coverage area and the other area.
In order to provide you with accurate map information as much as possible, we are always gathering information such as road repairs and doing site investigation. However, the names of roads, streets, facilities, and their locations are changed so often. In some places, the construction on roads may be in progress. For that reason, information on some parts in this sys­tem might be different from the actual one.
For the map information, contact your Lexus dealer.
1–011u
When you touch ”Map Info.”, the ”Map Database Ver­sion”screen appears and displays the map database ver­sion. The screen goes out 6 seconds later.

(d) Air filter
The air filter may clog after long use and reduce air flow. You can inspect the filter easily.
When you inspect and replace the air filter, be sure to turn off the fan.
EMV7011U
1. Open the glove box and remove the two covers.
EMV7012U
2. Take out the air filter. For LS400 only: Inspect the lower surface
of the filter. If it is just moderately dusty, it may be cleaned by blowing compressed air from the lower surface. Do not wash or oil the filter.
For all models: If it is dirty, it should be replaced. To maintain the air conditioning efficiency, replace the air filter according to the maintenance schedule. (For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the separate ”Owner’s Manual Supple­ment/Maintenance Schedule”.)

NOTICE
Do not drive with the air filter re­moved, or the efficiency of air condi­tioning may be lost.
(e) Operating tips
Make sure the air inlet grilles in front of
the windshield are not blocked by leaves or other obstructions.
If air flow control is not satisfactory,
check the dashboard vents. (See ”Cen­ter vents”, ”Side vents”, ”Lower vent” and ”Rear vents”.)
To help cool down the interior after park-
ing in the hot sun, drive for the first few minutes with the windows open. After the excess heat has blown away, close the windows.
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 control button be left to the OUTSIDE AIR mode and the air flow control switch be selected to any­where except the ”OFF” button.
If following another vehicle on a dusty
road, or driving in windy and dusty conditions, it is recommended that the air intake control button be temporarily pressed in to the RECIRCULATED AIR mode, which will close off the outside passage and prevent outside air and dust from entering the vehicle interior.

Using your audio system: some basics
This section describes some of the basic features of the Lexus audio system. Some information may not pertain to your system.
Your audio system works when the ignition key is in the ”ACC” or ”ON” position.
NOTICE
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the car audio on longer than necessary when the engine is not running.
(a) Turning the system on and off
EMV8002U
POWER–VOL: Push this knob to turn the audio system on and off. Turn this knob to adjust the volume. The system turns on in the last mode used.
AUDIO: Push this button to display switches for audio system.
EMV8003U
Push ”AM”, ”FM1/2”, ”TAPE” or ”CD” to turn on that mode. The selected mode turns on directly.
Push these buttons if you want to switch from one mode to another.
If the tape or disc is not set, the cassette player or compact disc player does not turn on.
You can turn off the cassette player by ejecting the cassette tape. If the audio system was previously off, then the entire audio system will be turned off when you eject the cassette tape. If another function was previously playing, it will come on again.

95–3
The switches for radio, cassette tape and compact disc player operation are displayed on the liquid crystal display. Touch them lightly and directly on the screen.
The selected switch is highlighted in green.
(b) Automatic sound levelizer
When the audio sound becomes difficult to be heard due to road noise, wind noise, etc. during driving, touch the ”ASL” switch. The system adjusts to the optimum volume and tone quality according to the noise lev­el.
(c) Tone and balance
How good an audio program sounds to you is largely determined by the mix of the treble, mid–range, and bass levels. In fact, different kinds of music and vocal pro­grams usually sound better with different mixes of treble, mid–range, and bass.
A good balance of the left and right stereo channels and of the front and rear sound levels is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to a stereo recording or broadcast, changing the right/left balance will increase the vol­ume of one group of sounds while decreas­ing the volume of another.

As the orange display goes up, each tone is more emphasized.
FADER: Adjusts the sound balance be­tween the front and rear speakers.
BALANCE: Adjusts the sound balance between the right and left speakers.
NOTICE
When cleaning the inside of the rear window, be careful not to scratch or damage the wire anten­na.
Putting a window tint (especially, conductive or metallic type) on the rear window may affect the recep­tion of radio. For the installation of the window tint, consult with your Lexus dealer.
