IS F_EE
The card key is not waterproof.
When required to leave a key to the vehicle with a parking attendant
Turn the trunk opener main switch off and lock the glove box as circum-
stances demand. (P. 57, 324)
Remove the mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant
with the electronic key only.
Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. In the
event that a mechanical key is lost, a new key can be made by any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional, using the key number plate. (P. 457)
When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not
press any buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you
are carrying an electronic key in your bag etc, ensure that the buttons are not
likely to be pressed accidentally. Pressing a button may cause the electronic
key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the air-
craft.
If the battery cover is not installed
and the battery falls out or if the bat-
tery was removed because the key
got wet, reinstall the battery with
the positive terminal facing the
Lexus emblem.

trical noise

ing metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
When multiple electronic keys are in the vicinity
