REPLACING THE BATTERY
When you replace the battery, prepare a lithium battery
CR1632 or equivalent and flathead screwdrivers. However, if
the inner parts are touched or the electronic key is dropped, it
will not function properly. We recommend you to have an
electronic key battery replaced by your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
Special care should be taken to prevent small children
from swallowing the removed battery or components.
NOTICE
 Do not touch the components in an electronic key
with your hand. It may cause static electricity to
occur, and an electronic key will be broken.
 When replacing the electronic key battery, be careful
not to lose components.
 Replace only with the same or equivalent type
recommended by a Lexus dealer.
 Dispose of used batteries according to the local laws.

If a wrong key is used, the key cylinder rotates freely to isolate
inside
mechanism. So, door locking is protected from thieves.
The windows and moon roof can be opened and closed from
outside the vehicle using a mechanical key. For details, see
“Power window switches” on page 59 and “Moon roof” on page

Lexus strongly recommends that all children be placed
in the rear seat of the vehicle.

KEYS AND DOORS
38Closing the door with the lock button pushed in will also lock
the door. If the electronic key is left in the vehicle, locking
cannot be done.
If the vehicle is subjected to a severe frontal, rear or side
impact with the engine switch in “IG
−ON” mode, all the doors
will unlock automatically after a few seconds.
CAUTION
Before driving, make sure the doors are closed and
locked, especially when small children are in the
vehicle. Along with the proper use of seat belts, locking
the doors helps prevent the driver and passengers from
being thrown out from the vehicle during an accident.
It also helps prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.
