IF YOU CANNOT SHIFT
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
SELECTOR LEVER
If you cannot shift the selector lever, use the shift lock
override button as follows:
1
Turn the ignition key to “LOCK” or “ACC”. Make sure the
parking brake is applied. Pry up the cover with a
flat−bladed screwdriver or equivalent.
2
Insert your finger, the screwdriver or equivalent into the
hole to push down the shift lock override button. You can
shift the selector lever while pushing the button.
For your safety, keep the brake pedal depressed.
Be sure to have the system checked by your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.

IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS OR LOCK
YOURSELF OUT
If you need a replacement key, contact your Lexus dealer.
See the suggestion given in “Keys” on page 8.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and you cannot get a
duplicate, many Lexus dealers can assist you. If you must
break a window to get in, we suggest breaking the smallest
side window because it is the least expensive to replace. Be
extremely cautious to avoid cuts from the glass.
