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.

(b) Inappropriate route guidance
may occur in the following
cases:
When turning at a wrong intersection off
route guidance.
In some cases, plural names of places
are announced.
In automatic rerouting, route guidance
may not be available for the next turning
to the right or left.
It may take a long time to operate auto-
matic rerouting during high speed driving.
In automatic rerouting, the detour route
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.
In automatic rerouting, the route may
not be changed.
Some route may not be searched.
If there are only narrow streets up to the
destination, the route up to the destination may not be shown.
The destination might be shown oppo-
site to the actual street.

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.

Automatic Air Conditioning Controls
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.

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.
