KEYS AND DOORS
8
1Master key (black) ± The master key works in
every l ock. For your Lexus dealer to make you
a new key with built±in transponder chip, your
dealer will need it.
2 Subkey (gray) ± The subkey will not open the
trunk and the glovebox.
3Key number plate ± Keep the plate in a safe
place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
The master key and subkey each have a transponder
chip in their key head which is very important for the
immobiliser system function, so be careful not to lose
these keys. If you make your own duplicate key, you will
not be able to cancel the system or start the engine.
To protect things locked in the trunk or glovebox when
you have your vehicle parked, leave the subkey with the
attendant. Since
the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key,
you should always carry a spare master key in case you
accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you need additional
keys, duplicates can be made by a Lexus dealer using
the key number.
We recommend you to write down the key number and
keep it in safe place.
