KEYS AND DOORS

KEYS
1Master keys (black) — These keys work in every lock.
For your Lexus dealer to make a new key with a
builtin transponder chip, your dealer will need one
of them.
2Valet key (gray) — This key will not open the glove
box and rear armrest door in the rear seat.
3Key number plate — 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 valet 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 valet 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 92. For locking the glove box, see page 77. For locking
the rear armrest door, see page 85.
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.

KEYS AND DOORS

Flat key
As a transponder chip is built in its key case, you can start
the engine with this key.
The flat key works in every lock.
A transponder chip for engine immobilizer system has been
placed in the key case of the flat key. This chip is needed to
enable the system to function correctly, so be careful not to lose
this key. If you make your own duplicate key, you will not be
able to cancel the system or start the engine.
Insert your key plate 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.
Starting the engine using a flat key
1. Remove the key plate from the key case.
2. Insert the key plate into the ignition switch. The indicator
light keeps flashing.
3. Bring the key case closer to the ignition switch within 10
seconds as indicated by the arrow head. The indicator light
goes out. This means the engine immobilizer system is
automatically canceled. (For details, see “Engine immobilizer
system” on page 14.) You can put the key case away then. You
cannot cancel the engine immobilizer system if 10 seconds
have past after you inserted the key plate. You need to remove
the key plate from the ignition switch and try it again from the
step 2.
4. Start the engine within 20 seconds after the security
indicator light goes out. You cannot start the engine if 20
seconds have past after the security indicator went off. You
need to remove the key plate from the ignition switch and try
it again from the step 2.

When you operate any button on the key, push it slowly and
surely. At this time, the indicator light on the key grip flashes
once.
The operational range of the wireless remote control is
approximately 1 meter (3 ft.). The effective range may vary
with different conditions. To activate the wireless remote
control without fail, do it approximately 1 meter (3 ft.) from your
Lexus. In the following cases, the battery in the key may be
discharged. If this is the case, replace it using a special
screwdriver.

The remote control does not work.
 The operational range of wireless remote control becomes
extremely short.
 The indicator light on the key is dimmed or does not come
on.
For the replacement of the battery, see “Replacing the battery”
on page 21. You can also have the battery of the key replaced
by your Lexus dealer.
If you lose the wireless key, contact your Lexus dealer as soon
as possible to avoid the possibility of theft, or an accident. (See
“If you lose your keys or lock yourself out” on page 323.)
You can use up to 4 wireless remote control keys for the same
vehicle. Contact your Lexus dealer for detailed information.
The wireless remote control key is an electronic
component. Observe the following instructions in order
not to cause damage to the key.
 Do not leave the wireless remote control key in places
where the temperature becomes high such as on the
dashboard.
 Do not disassemble it.
 Avoid knocking it hard against other objects or dropping it.
 Avoid putting it in water.

To stop the buzzer, close all the doors securely or push the

At this time, two beeps sound and the turn signal lights flash
twice.* Together with the activation of unlocking, the interior
light comes on for 15 seconds if the interior light switch is in
“DOOR” position.** However, this function does not work
when the ignition key is in the “ACC” or “ON” position. For\
further information, see “Illuminated entry system” on page 73.
You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the wireless
remote unlock feature.*** If a door is not opened by then, all
the doors will be automatically locked again.
Even if the “LOCK” or “UNLOCK” button is kept pressed in, the
locking or unlocking operation is not repeated. Release the
button and then push again.
NOTE:
* The turn signal lights can be set not to flash and the beep
volume can be changed.
