KEYS AND DOORS

KEYS
G11007
1Electronic keys These keys will work for the doors,
trunk and can start the engine. They will not work for
glove box and trunk storage extension door. Your
dealer will need one of them to make a new key.
Before you use these keys, be sure to read “Smart access
system with push− button start” on page 10.
2
Mechanical keys These keys work for the doors,
trunk, glove box and trunk storage extension door,
but cannot start the engine.
3Key number plate Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
Using a mechanical key
G11008
When you use the mechanical key included on the side of the
electronic key, slide the lock knob in the arrow direction and
take out the key as shown. To put the key back, slide the key
gently until it locks, paying attention to the angle and position
of the key. Be sure to put the key back when not in use.
NOTICE
When using an electronic key, observe the following
precautions:
 Do not af fix any material that cuts off electromagnetic
waves (such as a metal seal) on the electronic key.
 Do not knock the electronic key hard against other
objects.
 Do not leave the electronic key exposed to high
temperatures for a long period, such as on the
dashboard or hood under direct sunlight.

KEYS AND DOORS
9

Do not put the electronic key in water or wash it in an
ultrasonic washer.
 Do not keep the electronic key together with the
products emitting electromagnetic waves such as a
cellular phone.
 Do not disassemble the electronic key.
 Do not place the electronic key near electrical
appliances (e.g. television, computer or stereo) or
electrical medical equipment such as low frequency
medical appliances.
 If gasoline, polishing agents or oil adheres to the
electronic key, it may deform or crack over time.
The electronic keys are required to deactivate the engine
immobilizer, and are essential for the engine immobilizer 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 when using valet parking, turn the trunk lid
opener main switch to inoperative or lock the glove box if
necessary, and leave the electronic key (with the mechanical
key removed) with the attendant. For details, see “Trunk lid
opener main switch” on page 126.
If you should lose your electronic keys or if you need additional
electronic 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
20The doors cannot be locked using the entry function in the
following conditions:
G11029

Key reminder alarm
If you push the lock button on the outside door handle
with an electronic key left in the vehicle, an alarm sounds
for 2 seconds and the doors will not lock.
Before you push the lock button, make sure you are carrying
the electronic key.
INFORMATION
 Do not put an electronic key on the instrument panel,
rear package tray or floor, or in the glove box or
auxiliary box near the selector lever, which falls
outside of the effective range of the entry function.
As the alarm does not sound when a key is left in such
a place, you might accidentally lock the doors by
pushing the lock button on the outside door handle
and be locked out of the vehicle. Be sure to take the
electronic key with you.
 If you have the electronic key but bring it very close
to the window or outside door handle, the alarm
might activate. In this case, keep the electronic key
a certain distance away from the window or outside
door handle and then push the lock button again.
 If the electronic key is left in the vehicle, attempting
to lock the door by pushing in the lock button located
in the inside door handle and closing the door will
unlock all the doors and activate the alarm for 2
seconds.
