KEYS AND DOORS

KEYS
1Master keys (black) Ð These keys work in every lock.
For your Lexus dealer to make a new key with a
built-in transponder chip, your dealer will need one
of them.
2Sub key (gray) Ð This key will not open the glove box
and rear armrest door in the rear seat.
3Key number plate Ð Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer system has been
placed 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 items locked in the trunk or glove box when using
valet parking, leave the sub key with the attendant.
The trunk lid can be opened using a loop of wire in the trunk
even with the trunk lid opener main switch in the glove box
turned off. When keeping items in the trunk, be sure to turn off
the trunk lid opener main switch and lock the glove box and rear
armrest door. To turn off the main switch in the glove box, see
page 93. For locking the glove box, see page 77. For locking
the rear armrest door, see page 86.
Since the doors can be locked without a key, you should always
carry the flat key or 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 writing down the key number and storing it in
a safe place.
