Operation of each component
GS350_250_OM_OM30E16E_(EE)
To take out the mechanical key, push
the release button and take the key
out.
The mechanical key can only be
inserted in one direction, as the key
only has grooves on one side. If the
key cannot be inserted in a lock cylin-
der, turn it over and re-attempt to
insert it.
After using the mechanical key, store
it in the electronic key. Carry the
mechanical key together with the
electronic key. If the electronic key
battery is depleted or the entry func-
tion does not operate properly, you
will need the mechanical key.

■Card key (if equipped)
●The card key is not waterproof.
●The mechanical key that is stored inside the card key should be used only if a prob-
lem arises, such as when the card key does not operate properly.
●If it is difficult to take out the mechanical key, push down the lock release button
using a pen tip etc. If it is still difficult to pull it out, use a coin etc.
■When required to leave the vehicle’s key with a parking attendant
Turn the trunk opener main switch off, lock the glove box and armrest door as cir-
cumstances demand. (→P. 176, 404, 430)
Remove the mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant with the
electronic key only.
■If you lose your mechanical keys
New genuine mechanical keys can be made by any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional using the other
mechanical key and the key number stamped on your key number plate. Keep the
plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
●To store the mechanical key in the card key,
insert it while pressing the lock release but-
ton.
●If the battery cover is not installed and the
battery falls out or if the battery was
removed because the key got wet, reinstall
the battery with the positive terminal facing

■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 aircraft.
NOTICE
■To prevent key damage
●Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.
●Do not expose the keys to high temperatures for long periods of time.
●Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer etc.
●Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys close to
such materials.
●Do not disassemble the keys.
●Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic key.
●Do not place the keys near objects that produce magnetic fields, such as TVs,
audio systems and induction cookers, or medical electrical equipment, such as
low-frequency therapy equipment.
■Carrying the electronic key on your person
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appliances that
are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances within 10 cm (3.9 in.)
of the electronic key may interfere with the key, causing the key to not function
properly.
■In case of a smart entry & start system malfunction or other key-related problems
Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle, including
the card key, to any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional.

NOTICE
■When an electronic key is lost
If the electronic key remains lost, the risk of vehicle theft increases significantly.
Visit any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional immediately with all remaining electronic keys and the card
key that was provided with your vehicle.
■Handling the card key
●Do not apply excess force when inserting the mechanical key into the card key.
Doing so may damage the card key.
●If the battery or card key terminals get wet, the battery may corrode.
If the key is dropped into water, or if drinking water etc. is spilled on the key,
immediately remove the battery cover and wipe the battery and terminals. (To
remove the battery cover, lightly grasp and pull it.) If the battery is corroded, have
any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional replace the battery.
●Do not crush the battery cover or use a screwdriver to remove the battery cover.
Forcibly removing the battery cover may bend or damage the key.
●If the battery cover is frequently removed, the battery cover may become loose.
●When installing the battery, make sure to check the direction of the battery.
Installing the battery in the wrong direction may cause the battery to deplete rap-
idly.
●The surface of the card key may be damaged, or its coating may peel off in the
following situations:
• The card key is carried together with hard objects, such as coins and keys.
• The card key is scraped with a sharp object, such as the tip of a mechanicalpencil.
