Talking you can control your rear vibrating seats

Tried looking it up in search...no luck...but im not sure if it was already posted or mentioned...

i was messing around with my rear seats the other day and found this out...

but if you have an UL with the rear vibrating seats...did u know you can control the speed and power of the vibration??? all you have to do is hold down or keep pressing the vibration on (pushing it up) and it will start to change the speed and power of the vibration in you rear seats....

well if anything it works on my 04' UL

jess thought id put it out there if nobody knew..

k shooooots


*** jess thought id add if nobody knew also....

that u can lock the rear controls so your passengers dont mess with the radio and etc... hold the MODE button with the key symbol right next to it untill screen says "LOCK"...

my grandkids found that out the first time they were back their exercising every button they could,, they are the only rear seat passengers we have and they can go through those buttons like they are texting on their phones,,

you can control the radio functions, rear air, seat heat & cool, recline position, massage at various levels and trying to think of anything else they notified me about,,

I started reading the factory owners manual and gave up about 20-30 pages into it. my friend on the other hand (w/his '08 M5) read the whole manual (all of the thousand pages, or something close to it, its a 2" thick book) and knows everything, i wish i had that dedication.

Everyone really should read the owners manual. If you purchased used and you didn't get one, you can download one on Lexus page.

The real problem is that it 400+ pages long, it's not an interesting novel, and if you're like me it is impossible to absorb and remember all that technical information. But a studious one-time reading really is a help.

Default Locked out!

Anyone know how to take the LOCK status off. I haven't played with it yet, but, my buddy was back there a few weeks ago and said that the screen said LOCK....I looked back there and saw sticky stuff all over the panel, so, I just decided not to even get myself upset right now, with too many other things going on. I've heard that if you spill a drink of something back there, that it could cost a couple thousand to replace/repair. The though of that is just too much for me to bare. I'm hoping it was locked by one of my children and just needs to be unlocked. I presume you just hold the mode button down to unlock it....RIGHT?
