2020 Lexus UX Full Tutorial - Deep Dive

[@a.nonamouse2986]

I've had my UX250h for 4 years and have learned many new things here! So glad I discovered this channel, just perfect.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're here and very happy to help you enjoy your UX250h to the fullest!

[@miekwest1]

Wow. This is such a good resource! I've just spent a frustrating 1.75 hours just sitting in my newly acquired UX250h Takumi, with the User Guide, trying to get to grips with the infotainment system. Hmmmm..... not good. Then I remembered this video (which I had found when researching my Lexus - but before I'd bought one). What a godsend this is! Clear, concise, well filmed, good narrative. And it covers so much more. It's going to be my bible. Should be standard issue with every car. Thanks Melissa - great job! (now, can we get you to do one in a UK model...? LOL)

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi! Thanks so much for all of your support! Congratulations on your new UX! I sure wish I could hop "across the pod" and make a Lexus Deep Dive Tutorials - UK series LOL! Someone would have to teach me how to drive on the other side of the road! 🤣 I'm trying to get caught up on so many videos right now, but we have been crazy busy with guest tutorials after the holiday sales event. So many people learning all the cool things on their new Lexus🤓 Now to find time to film and edit all these amazing new cars! Thanks again for being here!

[@NorthsideLexus]

@@PreludeSon That's so awesome! Luxury cars are definitely in a higher price range, but don't forget to look at the L-Certified pre-owned vehicles in your area. A lot of them are from leases, so they are well taken care of and generally have lower miles. They hold their value, so they won't be dirt cheap, but they will be high value for a good price. And the L-Certified warranty is really good also. Let me know if you have any questions about it when you get it :) Have an awesome weekend!

This is an awesome help for the new buyers. I bought 2020 Lexus UX 300e. I was told by my dealer that the vehicle do not have navigation and i need to plug in my iphone for directions. Also i got all the manuals in dutch which i cannot use and i could not still manage to get an english version. Could you please let me know how do i use the navigator option built in Lexus UX 300 e - 2020? Many thanks

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi! If you have the Lexus factory NAV, then click on the Search Pin icon on the Map screen. If your UX is a non-NAV model, then you will need to plug in and connect for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The Connected NAV tile on the Home screen is for an app that is no longer supported. You can customize the Home Screen In the main Setup menu to hide that tile. That is always what I recommend. Thanks for checking in.

I know its a little late but thanks, I am in the process of moving out of my CTH 200 and the UX is high on the agenda. Is the price difference between the NX that much from the NX that it's a deal breaker I do like the extra size but would prefer extra kit in the UX

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hey Steven, I hear ya. It's a tough decision. I went with the NX for size, more of a base model. I have the power back door w/ kick sensor, but I don't have seat memory or NAV. I use Apple CarPlay all the time so the only thing I realy give up w/o NAV is the weather feature. Which is a cool feature, but wasn't worth the price jump for my budget. I love the UX style, but also wanted to be a little higher off the ground. I say make a pros and cons list. Drive them both back to back and see what the December to Remember Sales incentives are.

Hi. I'm not sure what you mean by "fun ventilation in the back" of the car. There are AC vents that can be opened and closed and depending on your model you may need to turn S-Flow off from the front main climate control screen so that air flows in the entire cabin.

Hi Colin, I would use the Front Defrost button and take advantage of the remote start feature in the Lexus app to precondition the UX before your drive. If you have a Windshield Wiper Deicer in your climate menu items, you can turn that on and it will time out on its own. We don't have a lot of vehicles with that feature in our area and it is not available on all models. Hope this helps. Thanks very much for being here.

[@track86]

Thank you so much. It is highly informative. I have a hard time to activate the kick sensor for the trunk. I can only get it maybe 1 out of 4. Any tips?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hey @track86! No worries. Here are the tips I know about: 1. Stand about an arm's length from the center of the back bumper so the sensor knows there is room for the door to open, if you need to be a little closer, step back after the kick. (If you have Parking Sensors, aim in between the two center sensors.) 2. Just do a quick kick and back, the sensor is really looking for the removal of your foot. (Make sure not to wave your foot side to side, just straight forward and back. No need to touch the under side of the bumper either. The sensor is looking down.) 3. Make sure the key fob is in range (so if you have it in a backpack, for example, it may have a harder time picking up the signal rather than in your pocket. Here's a fun little video I did about the Kick Sensor when it first came out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q32YmnmEZp2Ed80 Hope you find it helpful. Thanks so much for watching!

[@NorthsideLexus]

Ahhh, I got ya. Unfortunately the Qi wireless charger is a factory installed item and can't be added as a retrofit. If it makes you feel any better at all, it is the slowest of the charging options. It is a trickle charge and will maintain your charge if you're using Bluetooth for phone or audio, but it isn't a big boost and you still have to plug in for Apple CarPaly or Android Auto and the USB will charge and operate the phone, apps, etc. Hope this helps. :)

[@shaundolynhayes9476]

I am deciding between the rx and ux... I really love the rx but probably can afford the ux more efficiently

[@NorthsideLexus]

Great choices. There is a big size difference between the two. Maybe look in the middle at the NX? If you're worried about the overall size or height of the vehicle. If you're looking for touch screen the RX is the way to go. All of them are great riding vehicles and have nice access for cargo. Pricing will definitely favor the UX and NX. Check for specials in your area as well :) Happy shopping!

Hi. Thanks for watching. I'm sorry I'm not fluent in Spanish to reply back in Spanish. Hopefully it will translate ok for you. In the US, the 2020 UX comes standard with Apple CarPlay. Make sure to plug in with a data certified or genuine Apple cord to use CarPlay. The UX did not have power folding or auto folding side mirrors. (At least not on any that I saw at that time. It's possible that other regions have different equipment.).

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Richard! Thanks SO much! Yes, there is. It's a little tricky, but if you follow these steps it will work. AND...now I know what to do my next Tech Tip Tuesday video on ;-P Here's how: 1. Turn on the vehicle 2. Put the headlights in Auto 3. Trigger the headlights to come on automatically (do this inside a garage, or cover the sensor that is on the dash near the front windshield) When the headlights come on and night mode is triggered do the following: 5. Press Menu 6. Look for Display or Open Setup to locate Display 7. Now you should see "Day Mode" and you can select it to turn it on and keep it on That option is only visible when the lights have triggered Night Mode. I hope this makes sense. If not I'll have a video up by Tuesday for you ;) Thanks again!

Is there a way to have the cruise control always active? It's the only car I have where I have to press two buttons every time I drive; one to turn it on then another to set the ACC. Everything else I can just press the ACC and it's set.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Alain, Great question. Currently all of the Lexus and Toyota cruise control systems turn off when the car is turned off. Unfortunately that will mean two steps are required to turn it on and set the cruising speed. I'm not sure if the 2022 NX will operate differently, but will know soon. That will give us a clue if they are changing their standard versions. Thanks so much for tuning in with us!

[@Ifyoudonttakeitucantfakeit]

Why doesn’t it have auto fold mirrors when locking in uk 250. It must cost more to stop wiring it to the loom. Mean, That tonneau cover must be the cheapest on the market🤣 A friend has had a 2019 uk250 h since new and did t know it had traffic aware cruise and only found the CD player today 🤣

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Richard, It is very strange the things they decide not to add in order to keep the base price lower. Auto folding mirrors are the perfect example of that. I wish we had them on every vehicle. Funny thing about the tonneau cover, I think it is more about the size (for storage) and the weight of the larger covers than cost, but I bet that is part of it too. The UX is one of the entry level vehicles in the lineup so the pricing is very sensitive. I'm glad you friend is learning more about their UX though. It is such a fun car to drive. Thanks for being here.

If your vehicle looks like the one in the Mirror Adjustment section in the video, then it does not have power folding mirrors. We did not have any UXs with power mirrors at the time of filming. I hope this helps to answer your question. Thanks for watching.

Hi, We just transported our 2021 UX250 from NJ to NC. All throughout the trip on the trailer we were receiving warning that the windows and doors were open. We received the car soaking wet and Lexus of Charlotte claims it looks like a flood vehicle. The transport company is claiming we opened the doors and windows from the app rather than them loading the vehicle onto the trailer after they themselves obviously opened the windows when loading the car. Would we even be able to open the windows through the app in this situation? Or would we be receiving warning signs that the windows were open while the car was not running, just as we did?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Steven, I'm so sorry to hear about your vehicle. Here are some notes that may help you to determine what happened: - The Lexus app can not open or close windows or doors. - It can notify you of doors being open or unlocked and windows being open. The notifications will come when the car is off. - It can lock, unlock the doors and start the engine. - The key fob can be programmed to open the windows and moonroof. You would have to have a Technician check the system settings through a computer to see if that feature was enable for your vehicle and key fob, but that would also not open doors. But if it is programmed, it would fully open the windows and or moonroof. I hope they are able to help you get to the bottom of this soon. I hope the rest of your move goes well. All the best.

In the “navigation” tutorial, my Lexus doesn’t come with a “map” button on the top left hand side, only a “home” and “menu” button. How do I set up my navigation to be where I have the maps displayed? I can’t find any instructions or tutorials on how to set it up in my car.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Sid. On a UX with a Home button, the navigation runs off of your compatible smart phone and the system will vary depending on what country you are in. In the US, the vehicle is compatible for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. You can also use the stand alone Waze app. When you have a vehicle that does not come with built in navigation, you can not add it after the fact to the system on the vehicle. Make sure to consult your Owner's Manual to see which navigation apps are compatible with your Lexus and follow the steps to connect your compatible phone to operate them. I hope this answers your question. of not, please let me know what phone, operating system and what app you're using. I'm happy to try to help. :)

[@AmySuzanneJarrell]

I don't believe my 2019 UX 250h is equipped with navigation feature. How can I confirm this? A bit disappointed :/

Hi, Thanks for checking in. Cars with NAV will have a Map or NAV button around the controller area to turn on the map on screen. Hope this helps.

Hi I have trouble opening the car trunk . My UX200 doesn’t have kick sensor so I don’t know how to open the trunk while sitting in the car .

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Dyanna, Do you have a rear door opener button to the right of your fuel door opener button? (This is for UXs with a power back door, with or without a Kick Sensor.) If you have a manual back door, then it only opens from the outside at the touch pad on the back door handle. Check the Owner's Manual for your vehicle: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM76449U/pdf/OM76449U.pdf I'm confirming the information starting on page 103, Section 3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors Hope this helps.

Hi again. I want to know how do you put the windshield wipers up on the Lexus UX? I’ve tried watching other videos but it does not seem to work for my UX.

[@NorthsideLexus]

So sorry for the delay. I'm in Texas in an area hit hard by a major winter storm and we had to close the dealership for a few days. Just getting back and catching up. Steps: Turn the car off, lift up on the wiper stalk and hold it for a few seconds in the Mist position. The wipers will move into service mode. Here's what I have for you from the Owner's Manual on LexusDrivers.com: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM76363U/pdf/OM76363U.pdf (Check page 174) When the windshield wipers are not being used, they retract to below the hood. To enable the windshield wipers to be lifted when parking in cold conditions or when replacing a windshield wiper insert, change the rest position of the windshield wipers to the service position using the wiper lever. ■ Raising the wipers to the service position Within approximately 45 seconds of turning the engine switch off, move the wiper lever to the (U.S.A.) or (Canada) position and hold it for approximately 2 seconds or more. The wipers will move to the service position. Again so sorry for the delay!

Is it normal for a UX to have a rough shift from 1st gear into 2nd/CVT? Only happens in Normal and Eco mode, not Sport. Dealership says it's normal but it's very rough.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Justin, I haven't experienced it as rough, but I haven't driven the UX as much as some of the other models. One thing to consider is the Eco Mode, even more so than Normal Mode try to keep you from being heavy on the accelerator. It seems to want to slowly move you up to speed. I wonder if that has something to do with it? I'll check with a colleague who drives a UX and see if she has any other feed back. Another great resource is the Lexus Enthusiast website. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching :)

[@JustinSmithEdmunds]

@@NorthsideLexus Thanks! I don't think it's related to Eco mode since it also happens in Normal mode. It's a pretty rough jolt when accelerating from a stop. Such a bummer since I love the car otherwise!

[@Forla95]

Anyone know if the 2019 model (Luxury or FSport) does it have sensors on the handle that recognize the driver and allow him to open and close the entire car? Same thing for the trunk, on the 2019 model does anyone know if it is automatic and can be opened with your feet? Thanks in advance

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi! The UX has smart access sensors on the Driver's Door and the front Passenger Door. I'm not aware of a Kick Sensor at that time. You will need to check the specifications for what came on the vehicle to be sure of the equipment, since different regions have different features available. Thanks for checking in.

[@Forla95]

Thanks a lot, appreciate it

My UX 250h does not have Navigation, can I also connect my IPad to UX250 and use it rather than my IPhone?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi @Ashok! Thanks for watching. The iPad can be used for audio content like music, pod casts, audio books, etc. Apple CarPlay is currently not available for the iPad and Bluetooth phone calls will not be compatible with the iPad either. If your UX came with AppleCarPlay, the best bet is to plug in for Apple CarPlay and use one of the navigation apps. It will show right on your screen: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5LXl2x-Zpadh68 Hope this helps :)

Can I get an aftermarket wireless iphone charger installed?

Hi @koiman23 dealerships aren't usually allowed to install after market devices. They can sometimes void your warranty. If you have something put in from a reputable installer make sure you aren't risking any warranty items. Hope this helps.

[@terrychalmers8929]

You didn’t cover how to lock the car with a pet inside without triggering the alarm?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Totally missed that back in 2020! My videos have gotten even more detailed now. Use the metal emergency key to lock the vehicle with the engine running. Then take the whole key with you. The fob housing and the metal key. The car will beep some because you are overriding the smart access system. Then when you get back in, you will use the mechanical key to unlock the vehicle. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in with me.

[@djtiass]

One question, here in Germany i have Home button, but i have Navigation also, i can put adress and i can drive.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Wow. That sounds like a great combination. In the US if you have the Home button it is a non-NAV car and you use a map app through the phone for navigating to destinations. Like with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. If the car has Lexus NAV, then it usually has a Map button.

Hey Pawel, The higher end models all come standard with Memory Seating. The entry level vehicles have more package options to give pricing flexibility.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Recalls can happen for so many reasons and it can, unfortunately happen to any manufacture. If you experience a recall, don't be discouraged. It means that they have discovered a potential issue and rather than wait for it to become a problem, they come up with a solution :)

[@todtalk3912]

The rav 4 has a nice cover that rolls into the bar that holds it. the lexus has some antiquated pos tent like complicated thing. I love toyota. theres no reason in my mind you wouldn't consider an hse or hyrbid rav 4 or venza that is made in japan over this. no reason at all. other than your self esteem is low and think your better than someone driving a L over a T. This vehicle is built on the some platform as some of Toyotas cheapest vehicles. also, the run flats are a joke, just trying to compete with other luxury brands, I dont get it. maybe for the hybrids if it eats trunk space, but other than that, it should get a spare. I truly wish they'd go back to the rav being a fuel efficient offroader like it was when it debuted

[@todtalk3912]

None the less, great video.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Thedetails aredark ! Thanks for tuning in. I had an 08 RAV4 and loved it! The RX and NX are definitely more inline with the equipment level of the RAV. The UX is an entry level vehicle for Lexus and that may explain some the details that help keep the cost lower. Thanks again for watching.

[@michaelgerges3210]

The video is nice but misleading in some parts, I have UX 200 2019 Navigation and doesn't have Apple carplay, I showed the dealership your videos and what about UX and the reply was completely denying any carplay possibility in UX 200 2019 , So Either Lexus is fooling their customers or just making fake videos about imaginary carplay, I am really upset because even the navigation is 2018 version and Dubai is very different than the map provided in UX which makes it completely useless, If you are in real tech specialist I think you should at least help me in that and that would be really appreciated.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Michael, yes, I'm a Master Certified Lexus Technology Specialist. I have been for the past 8 years and have been with the Lexus brand for over 21 years. I try to make sure everything I teach is accurate for the vehicles that we have in the US. I'm not sure if the equipment is different where you live. It is possible that they are built differently in differently countries. Here's what I know about the UX and what you're asking: There was not a UX in 2018 so I'm not sure which vehicle you are comparing the navigation system to. The UX was introduced in the US as a 2019 model and Apple CarPlay was standard equipment. If you have access to the 2019 Owner's Manual you can find a lot of great information for Apple CarPlay. Here's a link: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/omnav-s/OM76384U/pdf/OM76384U.pdf. If you're looking at the date for the map data then a 2019 model would show a date of 2018. That would be when the mapping company produced the map data. The UX in the US has dynamic navigation available, that allows for a cloud connection for navigation when the signal is available. It is a subscription service and is not available in all areas. That might explain the difference in the map you are seeing. Again, I'm sorry if the vehicles I have access to are different from where you are.

[@andreasolari5625]

At least in Europe, Apple Car Play and Android Auto weren't available on the 2019 UX, they are in the 2020 minor revision. I got my UX250h 3 weeks ago, but it still was a 2019 model, thus no CP/AA built-in. There were news spreading around about a possible software update coming for 2019 models, but the Covid thing seems to have slowed down the whole considerably. Latest informations I saw is that it may be available in July. It is supposed to be a free upgrade which has to be performed by your dealer, but this may change from country to country. Some other things are different in Europe, we get DAB+ instead of HD/SAT radio for example, thus a couple of things are different, anyways thx for the video, was very informative and more undestandable than the manual itself.
