KEYS AND DOORS

KEYS
11L025a
1Master key (black) ± The master key works in every
lock. For your Lexus dealer to make you a new key
with built±in transponder chip, your dealer will need
it.
2Sub key (gray) ± The sub key will not open the trunk
and the glove box.
3Key number plate ± Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
A transponder chip for engine immobiliser system has been
filled in the head of the master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function correctly, 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 glove box when you
have your vehicle parked, leave the sub key 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.
11L003b
Since a transponder chip is not built in this flat key, you
cannot start the engine with this key. Use this key to
release the lock in case you accidentally lock your keys
inside the vehicle or trunk.
Insert your flat key in its key case as shown. We recommend
that you always carry this with you for emergency use. Do not
leave it in your vehicle.
