2006 Lexus GS430 lock

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR LEXUS
v
Accessories, spare parts and modification of
your Lexus
A wide variety of non−genuine spare parts and accessories for
Lexus vehicles are currently available in the market. You
should know that Toyota does not warrant these products and
is not responsible for their performance, repair, or
replacement, or for any damage they may cause to, or adverse
effect they may have on, your Lexus vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified with non −genuine Lexus
products. Modification with non −genuine Lexus products
could af fect its performance, safety or durability, and may even
violate governmental regulations. In addition, damage or
performance problems resulting from the modification may not
be covered under warranty.
Spark ignition system of your Lexus
The spark ignition system in your Lexus meets all
requirements of the Canadian Interference− Causing
Equipment Standard.
Installation of a mobile twoway radio system
As the installation of a mobile two −way radio system in your
vehicle could affect electronic systems such as the multiport
fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system,
cruise control system, dynamic radar cruise control system,
anti− lock brake system, SRS airbag system and seat belt
pretensioner system, be sure to check with your Lexus dealer
for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding
installation.
Smart access system with pushbutton start
Users of any electrical medical devices such as implanted
pacemakers should consult the manufacturer of the device for
information about its operation under the influence of radio
waves. Radio waves could have unexpected effects on the
operation of such medical devices. For details, see “Keys” on
page 8 and “Smart access system with push −button start” on
page 11.
Tires and loading on your Lexus
Underinflated or overinflated tire pressure and the
excess load may result in the deterioration of steering
ability and braking ability, leading to an accident. Check
the tire inflation pressure periodically and be sure to
keep the load limits given in this Owner’s Manual. For
details about tire inflation pressure and load limits, see
page 548 and 462.
Scrapping of your Lexus
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your
Lexus contain explosive c hemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped
with the airbags and seat belt pretensioners left as they are,
this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the
systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner removed
and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Lexus
dealer before you scrap your vehicle.

KEYS AND DOORS
8
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 11.
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.

KEYS AND DOORS
10The 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 130.
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
12If the electronic key battery is discharged, the entry function
and wireless remote control cannot be used. Use the
mechanical key integrated into
the electronic key by inserting
it in the door keyhole to lock or unlock doors and into the trunk
lid keyhole to unlock the trunk lid. To start the engine, see
“Starting the engine when the electronic key battery is
discharged” on page 357. In order to activate the entry function
and wireless remote control, the battery should be replaced.
For details, see “Replacing the battery” on page 34.
(a) Engine immobilizer
G11009
The engine immobilizer is a theft prevention function.
When you enter the vehicle carrying an electronic key and
press the engine switch, the electronic code in the key is
automatically checked to determine whether it
corresponds to the registered ID code for the vehicle. If
the ID code is verified, you can start the engine.
The system is automatically set when the engine switch is off.
The indicator light will start flashing to show the system is set.
